Annie and Bebe are cute together, I adore how Annie immediately stands up for Bebe and listens to her when she has thoughts and feelings. I didn't really like the cheerleading squad (except one, but they were a new squad member), I know they were still learning how to navigate their friendship with Bebe because of her identity, but the way they went about it struck a nerve. They isolated her from events or spoke for her to do things because she's the tran girl. It was rude and I didn't like it. And don't get me started on Jonah, a real creep. Annie and Bebe are the ones who made this bearable.

This was a sweet and fluffy sapphic romance. I loved how healthy Bebe and Annie’s relationship was and that they were good communicators. I also appreciated the exploration of microaggressions that were inflicted on Bebe. However, I wish that cheerleading featured more than it did in the story, and I thought that the Bebe and Annie’s romantic relationship was a little rushed. I would have liked to find out why they grew apart for two years prior to the events of this novel. Moreover, I would have liked a better apology from the squad, who were quite transphobic.
