Ce livre est un véritable bijou. Il m'a énormément touchée. 

Ce roman s'apparente selon moi plus d'une expérience réelle que pourraient vivre de nombreuses personne que d'une fiction. Je pense en effet que beaucoup de gens se sentiront très proches des personnages, de leurs sentiments ou de leur histoire personnelle. 
Il montre notamment que même au sein de la communauté LGBTQIA+, il existe des discriminations et qu'on a beau être "out" et s'affirmer en qui l'on est, ça demeure un combat régulier pour se faire accepter et s'accepter

Je recommande ce roman vivement, à tout un chacun.

This feels like 'Love, Simon' (I've only seen the movie) but way way better. 
Felix's feelings about his identity were very relatable. The commentary on healthy versus toxic types of love was perfect.
I loved how complex his relationships with others throughout the book were. His mom, his dad, his friends. Each character felt unique and well thought out. The tone of each character felt accurate to their ages.
Felix himself is a complex character. He doesn't always make the right choices and doesn't always see things perfectly, and I liked that about him.
