anywayyy, the pacing was a bit off for the first 150 pages in my opinion bc nothing happened and it was getting slightly boring imo
the writing is great though it‘s just the plot (and how graphic it is) that I struggled with
also, this book is advertised in such a weird way?? like people need to start making it clear when a book is as violent as this one is because they really didn‘t and I don‘t like when stuff like this is being jumped on me (my bad for not looking up the content warnings first, i guess)

I'd never read anything before with such a distinctive Glaswegian voice and the audiobook really helped with that.

The rest of the content is fine, it's very relatable as a queer story, the alienation, the bullying, the danger of being a gay teen is well captured. The characters are well written and I enjoyed the snippets of humour throughout.
