Gostei bastante desse livro, dos personagens, dos assuntos abordados, das relações.
É tão importante existirem livros assim, que abordam e representam os mais diversos tipos de gêneros, identidades, sexualidades, raças. E Alice faz isso com um primor sem igual, com tamanho respeito e simplicidade que espero que cheguem a cada vez mais pessoas, principalmente ao público alvo mais jovem, para mostrar que há muito mais, há muito além e sempre, sempre há amor, da forma que for

I think when a book means so much to you it’s hard to give it an adequate review. Like Mr Knightley said, “If I loved you less, I might be able to talk about it more.” This book stared into my very soul and made me understand myself in a whole new way, and it gave me so much hope for my future. I laughed and cried and was rendered speechless. I felt like I WAS Georgia.

fun little YA about finding out you’re ace and also starting university and friendships. There were little things i could be persnickety about but I don’t feel like it because overall I had a nice time reading this.
