I loved this book.  Frenemies to lovers kinda vibe between the two main characters.  
We have bisexuals, lesbians, gay men and even aroace rep which is so rare it feels in literature. 

We follow growth and destruction of different relationships at points with all sorts of twists.  With a happy ending overall this really just kept me enthralled and I loved the characters so much despite their faults

I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS!!! What a wholesome story. This gave me major classic 2000's teen movie  vibes, and I'm living for it! Highly recommend for a fun, fluffy read that will give you major throwback vibes.

I love this book. 

A friend of mine recommended it to me and at first I wasn't too sure whether or not I'd be into it since I usually stay away from YA novels, especially romances. But god. This book truly proved me wrong. I love Darcy's character and I love Brougham maybe even more. I laughed, I cried, and I couldn't stop smiling for hours after I had finished the book. I love all the different relationship dynamics in the book and how unique each one is. My favourite part, and the reason why I picked up the book in the first place, was the talk about internalized biphobia and bi-erasure. I don't think I have ever felt so seen by any book I have ever read.

I’ve read some of the most amazing bi-rep this summer!!! Wow. This was great and I enjoyed the advice column plot and consequences and of course the drama involved in the romance department!
