5.0
Another quick note - I loved that this focused on the characters' queerness without being a "coming out" story. Nima's conflict comes from exploring queer social groups and getting to know herself, but the fact that she is queer is just... a fact. It's so refreshing to see a young queer protagonist who is comfortable with their attraction - and Boteju does a great job crafting a queer coming-of-age narrative that doesn't require that big moment of "hey everyone, I'm X" for any of the characters.
I wish I'd been able to read this book as a teenager, and I'm so excited for the teenagers now who can.
Moderate: Adult/minor relationship and Alcohol
Minor: Homophobia and Transphobia
Nothing sinister for the relationship, but Nima is 17 and has a relationship with a 21 y/o.rosage's review against another edition
