Plenty of stereotypes, didn't really like Maggie's voice, and what is it with the obsession people have with dating? As if you are not able to live without it.

This is a very cute coming of age story, with an interesting storyline of the main character Maggie navigating life being a bisexual teenager. She needs a date for her sister's quinceañera, and has to confront feelings for not one, not two, but three people in her life.

It was cute and fun, but I had wished for it to be a tad faster paced with deeper character development.

*Gifted by Netgalley & Feiwel & Friends - thank you! All opinions are my own.

Such a cute story! I loved the writing, and the main character was great. All the relationships in her life were complex and beautiful. If this is the way kids are nowadays, I'm kind of jealous. I was not this self-aware at that age.

I was surprised to see this was a debut novel...it is super polished. Contemporary isn't my go-to, but I really enjoyed this one. And more bi rep is always a good thing.
