I wish we got an epilogue also,

how did Leo not realize it was Wren when the CHICKENS exist?? not that many people have chickens dude

reminded me of Tweet Cute by Emma Lord, so definitely check that out if you liked this

YA + coming of age + high school dances!

As the newly appointed student council president, Wren’s first order of business: abolish the annual student Valentine’s Day dance. It’s a nightmare as an asexual, and a drain of resources.

The problem: the vice president, Leo, has a solution to the money issue. Having an anonymous “not a dating” app sponsor the dance.

Wren does research and signs up for the app, only to develop feelings for someone he connects with.

I absolutely loved this one and definitely recommend it!

Sometimes inner dialogue in a book can drive me nuts, but in this one it just works. I don’t know if it’s also being queer & ace, but I loved Wren’s inner dialogue as he navigated being ace, a high school dance usually centered on relationships, and figuring out feelings for someone while being ace.

As a reader, you pretty much know who the anonymous person Wren is talking to through the app, and I loved that we got the dynamic of seeing them connect at a digital level and also in person.

I’m obsessed with the fact DeWitt writes YA with ace MCs, and I can’t wait to see what’s next as I loved this one and Ace’s Wild!

✨Representation: ace MMC, queer side characters

‼️Content: cancer; death of a parent, past; anti-ace/aro

I LOVE THIS BOOK SO MUCH IT GAVE MY HEART JOY

Dedication: for Michael
1st sentence: “there’s something about decision making and running full tilt down an empty hallway that doesn’t pair well.”

Wow, I loved this book. I love Wren Martin, even if he is an insufferable grouch. The writing style is so fresh, and interesting, I was captivated the whole time.
