I think this book also did a great job of dealing with the intersection of religion and queer identity without writing anything remotely triggering. It’s important that the story is representative of our world, but the author was awesome about not making it graphic and traumatic.

Overall, this book was fine, but I found myself extremely disappointed with it because of how much I've loved McQuiston's previous works. This book was perfectly average, with (mostly) vanilla characters, and a dull plot, which is not a way I would describe either of McQuiston's previous works. I think that this book had a lot of important themes for younger readers, but I don't think it stands close to McQuiston's other works, and might recommend people to skip this one if they're reading it solely because they enjoyed those two books.
