A good slice of life and wholesome family story. I'm still struggling to connect with these characters.

Review of the whole series:
Cute and heartwarming coming of age story. I think this is a comic i can recommend to a lot of people. The moms point of view, having a parner whos views are not the same as yours, trying to figure out your sexuality while being young... Really important topics.
//
Koko sarjan arvostelu:
Suloinen ja sydäntä lämmittävä nuoruuden tarina.Tämä on sarjakuva, jota voin suositella monille. Äidin näkökulma, kumppani jonka näkemykset eivät ole samoja kuin sinun, nuorena oman seksuaalisuuden selvittäminen.... Todella tärkeitä aiheita.

The father has some bad beliefs about gay people. But is never outright horrible. But could be triggering if someone has had similar experiencesosakitty's review

I adored reading this book. It's been a while since I read the first two volumes, but reading this series always feels like a breath of fresh air. I wish I had this when I was a teen. I love the mom and how she observes her sons in such a loving and honest way, even when she's unsure of what to do in certain situations. I love how she defends them when the clueless (and homophobic) father starts making comments at home that could hurt her children. (I don't think this is a spoiler since it's on the back cover of the book.)
This book is just so wholesome and full of love, but also honest about the realities of growing up gay in an environment where you feel you have to hide who you really are.

My favorite volume of this so far. I feel like the story and characters are all showing real growth at this point. Less repetitive than first volume especially. It’s matured into something I really love, while maintaining that sense of hope and lightness.
