Reading this made me realize that High School in US is super scary. Especially if you're a poor bipoc sapphic like Liz. It was hard not to get frustrated by everything's going on here.

This book is the typical high school rom-com cliche, but make it sapphic. With a not-a-prom-queen material protagonist, her super cool and quirky love interest, a bunch of loyal friends, and an evil cruel mean girl antagonist who you want to punch in the face.

I forced myself reading the first half part of this book because I despise one of the cis-het man character (Jordan, I'm talking about you), but then I ended up loving him and cheering him on, urggg 🙄 in my defense, he really portrayed himself as a audacious jock at first.

And the ending, I actually love the ending!!! Amanda and Liz was soooo cute together. I squealed so much and I couldn't stop smiling. But I feel like this type of story is forgettable and I won't really remember how good it is in the future, you know? Hence the 3 stars.

One of the main topics discussed in the book is sickle-cell disease, an inherited group of terminal blood disorders. The MC's brother inherited it from their mother, who died due to complications of sickle cell. There are several scenes towards the end of the novel where the brother is hospitalised due to acute chest syndrome.
