Edit: dropping my review from 4.5 to 4. When the excitement of being in the story has worn off I have a few more criticisms of some of the racial dynamics in the book.

A lot of things about the book don't stand up to Fridge Logic. You sort of accept them as you read, but the instant you put the book down and start doing something else, your brain tells you all the things that don't make sense about what you've just read. Initially I found this incredibly annoying. After a while, though, the story became so engrossing that I stopped noticing. But those things are definitely still there, so caveat lector if that'll bug you no matter how sweet the love story is.

4.5 something about the way CMQ writes 20-something characters having existential and identity crises has been really hitting these days (┬┬﹏┬┬)

Fun little mystery. It was quite slow, there were some bits that got picked up and dropped few times. I did enjoy it for the most part, but it think it would have benefited from some tighter editing.
Jane was cool and great. I wish she was my gay mom.

Some detailed spicy sex scenes. Some in public. Main character Jane is Asian American, and dealt with racism and homophobia.the_true_monroe's review against another edition

There were minor things that kept this from being 5 stars for me, but I still loved it all the same.
Casey McQuiston, thank you for another fantastic read.
