I was considering not finishing the book because how you gonna have a romance novel with a college aged student and a 17 year old. But then I was like, that is not really the direction we are actually headed. I listened a little more closely and realized they are both college students, one is 18 and the other 3 days from 18. Also, this was not the typical romance novel so there is no crossing the lines which had me totally weirded out for a hot minute. So, if like me you find yourself horrified, give the book a chance because we do touch on some important stuff that is not often discussed in the wlw queer community.
