This is an adorable coming of age LGTBQ+ love story between two college freshmen. Both protagonists are dealing with various challenges from their pasts, and both learn to value themselves for who they truly are rather than who they think they should be.

I really enjoyed reading this especially for a YA book. I liked the characters, the storyline was cute and the subplots felt decently well-developed.

Okay so I had high hopes for this book, and although I enjoyed it, it felt like something was missing for most part of the story 😅 

Like I liked the writing style, and I loved the rep, I loved the two MC's own individual character arcs. But the two of them together? The romance? The chemistry? I wasn't that convinced 😭 I mean up until 60-70%, I didn't love them as much as I imagined, and their chemistry was lacking (altho I did swoon in a few lines/scenes back there). I guess I wanted more?

Still a solid read tho. I definitely stayed for the character arcs and back stories 😆

I kept putting this book off for so long but once I started reading I didn’t want to put it down. This book was so much fun and I really enjoyed reading it. I loved seeing Molly grow more comfortable being herself and I also loved seeing Alex change and learn to let others in. I wish we got to see more of them together after the final chapter but overall this book was really sweet and I can’t wait to see what the author writes next!
