So as the main teen character, Monique, Or Mo for short, learned about her vaginismus I felt utter respect. Even though its YA and there were moments of lack of maturity on the MC and side characters, Reggie and Sasha decisions. In particular with Reggie, the wild and funny reform teen project for Mo's dad. But I'm okay with him as things were often hectic and upbeat. A necessary personality for a character in this type of setting to ease the things Mo faced. Also Sasha who if there was a next book I'd want to read from her point of view. She is everything and mature for how things unpack.
On to a more serious note since thats all my thought on the main characters trio.
Sometimes to firgure out sexual activity or concerns help comes in the most unexpected way. I mean the people in life who are seemingly the most religious. This storyline made it a reminder again that help comes in surprising moments. That and learning that not everyone can be trusted at first.
Anyways my emotions are wrecked into pieces. Then have rebuilt with new hope by the end of Mo's story. It was relatable in certain ways. But when it wasn't I felt genuine eagerness for Mo's self-discovery journey.
