Before delving into this book, know that it deals with difficult topics like sexual assault, abuse, and abortion, so check trigger warnings before reading! Especially with current political discourse around abortions.
That aside, this is a powerful coming of age story that isn't afraid to tackle difficult topics head on. The romance at the center felt realistic and the characters were all well developed. Clarke nailed the voice also; it felt very authentically teen. For a debut, I was very impressed!
