Lovely and thought-provoking and also fun somehow, even though this book deals with some heavy topics. I liked Sav a lot, but I LOVED her queer friends. I enjoyed watching Sav realize she could really depend on them and trust them as their relationships deepen. 

I thought this was such a good examination of the ways you change and grow after high school and how you become a different person in so many ways.
