I can honestly see myself coming back to this at some point but I'm very much a mood reader and I was really trying to force myself to read this. the writing style isn't for me I don't think but I do want to come back to it at some point

This was pretty fun, though I think my expectations were very different when people kept comparing this to heart stopper. It was cute and definitely a feel good queer story. But to me it missed a little spark, a little pining, some more agonising and such. There were moments there but since there are two girls here I felt like the balance was off. I feel like there was a big flip at so e point and that was that.
As I said I think my expectations for what this book was going to be like we're just not at all up to par with what the book actually was about.
It was cute, it was fun, but i think my experience and what I got out of heartstopper was completely different than most people's it seems.
