Okay, okay, okay. I love it! It's great, I'm amazed! The characterisation, the inclusion, the culture. I'm so amazed! It show the realistic struggles with racism, Islamophobia, homophobia in general, lesbophobia and biphobia. It also educated me on bengali culture which was a welcome surprise for me. This book made me laugh, cry and scream with anger - I would recommend this book a thousand times over to anyone and everyone!

I think this book was fun because I amused myself by reading in a really bad Irish accent. They're sweet books but I don't know what it is about both of Adiba's books that just...felt off. They're so sweet and innocent and cute but I was just wary the entire time reading this. It's probably just a personal thing. Everyone I trust loves these books, likely the hype just got to me. They're cute and quick reads for all you YA loving sapphics.
