This book was quite an interesting read. I enjoyed the way it tackled identity and the ways that different identities interact and how you can be marginalised in some ways while also being discriminatory to those who are marginalised in different ways to you. I feel like I could recognise some of these characters in the people I knew when I was 17 like them. I enjoyed the exploration into identity, and the way that people with differing opinions on identity can coexist within the same community and how understanding your own identity doesn't always mean you get it right first time.

I feel like I really wanted to love this more than I did. It had some good tropes - love triangle, enemies to lovers, friends to lovers, coming of age. But I just didn’t really enjoy the love triangle or who Felix ended up with. I just never really fell for Ezra. But I appreciate that this book focuses on and tried to analyze different types of love. Although that attempt at analysis felt a little much and preachy at times.

4.0

This was really sweet and it made me so emotional. I couldn’t stand the love triangle (I did like both guys but the catfishing made me so anxious) but other than that and some things I found annoying in Felix I really enjoyed reading this . I loved most of the characters and I loved getting to read about Felix opening up to love and learning more about himself and his identity.

This is a book about finding and learning to love oneself. It was so cute and I found myself internally and sometimes externally screaming. Everything is so interconnected and cool. The plot had a lot of different points which sometimes felt like too much but it was still fabulous.
