I picked up this book because I was interested in the themes, but overall it never really got at what I was hoping it would get at.

This book has so much potential, but it kinda sucked. I almost didn't finish it, but I did. The very end (last 40 pages or so) saved the book from a two star rating.

Okay, so I am told this a warm gentle book about coming in identity. Well, we eventually get to identity but it takes a while. Fine but have a decent way to go about it. Cause I was just boarded with the whole thing and wish the exploring for identity came stronger in the story. And I'll just leave it at that.

Still waiting for a decent LGBT YA book that isn't rated 5 stars by a bunch of straight critics.
EDIT: As a queer librarian I wouldn't recommend this book to any teens. It essentially ends with a, "well that was weird!" and the reader is left in the dark. Don't read it. Not worth your time.

I really enjoyed this and flew right through it. I wish it were longer and there was some more wrap-up to all the storylines because I liked all the characters.

I was having fun reading this book. A solid four, thought I.

And then came the most abrupt ending I have ever experienced in a book. It literally feels like there is no act 3 and the book slams shut at the end of act 2. Bizarre, but that's the reason I lowered my rating: I have zero closure on anything because the literal line after a realisation that traditionally comes in Act 2 happens, the books ends.

A girl falls for her best friend, who may or may not be gay, but who either way doesn't want to deal with it. A semi-sad book that deals with the end of a friendship, but covers growing up and coming out to oneself fairly well. The end of the relationship between the two girls feels more an inevitable consequence of growing up and growing apart, only sped up by the main character realizing she's gay.
