I liked this book in theory and I love the story of a you no queer indigenous person living in the country and balancing culture, life and friendships.
However, the dialogue was not good. It wasn’t believable and didn’t capture a feeling of young people or how they think or speak which was disappointing

Absolutely adored it. Nuanced, complex and full of heart. A beautiful story everyone should read.

I absolutely loved this book. I would highly recommend to anyone who loves a good coming of age/self exploration/heartwarming LGBTQ+ story.
It took me on an emotional roller coaster and I could not put it down!
