The exact book I needed as a teenager. It’s nice that I felt like I was reminiscing on something I didn’t experience, which is a testament to the good writing. Only thing I didn’t like:

I felt like the romance between the besties was rushed. I would’ve appreciatetd more of Felix having the thoughts and feelings for Ezra, instead it just felt like everyone told them they wanted to be together so Felix was like oh okay wait actually maybe I do like him. Kids / teens should know its okay for someone else to like you, it's very possible your best friend might be in love with you, but if everyone's mature about it you can still have a relationship with that person and not be IN a relationship.

Everything else was well done!

im so sick of harry potter being a feature in modern books. jk rowling has been openly transphobic for like 10 years now. sincerely a person who never read harry potter but thinks people need to actually develop their own personalities

I got to laugh at some parts and cry at some parts. I read this for a local library bookclub, and so glad I did.

Well this was a rollercoaster, wasn’t it? A unique and thoughtful story about what it means to grow up and come into your own. The character of Felix Love is definitely a complex one; not unlike that of Simon Spier. Only Felix is slightly too vindictive and narrow minded for me to get on board with some of the actions he takes throughout his journey of self-discovery and acceptance. All of the relationships are messy and full of raging teenage hormones, angst and mystery that are explored and utilized well. However, I do wish that the love triangle, if you could even call it that and some of the other important subplots were explored in depth or just given the time each needed to make a significant impact...

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.
