I loved this book! The writing style was beautiful and I loved all of the characters. I was rooting for Olivia and Eden throughout the entire book! 
The one bad thing about this book was “the Crash,” Eden’s friends. I strongly dislike them, and I wish they had gotten punished for their actions.
Also Eden’s dad. I hate that man with a passion.
This was an adorable queer retelling of the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice, I recommend it to all!

I love love loved this one. Olivia and Eden are fully realized, complex humans—and also so so 7th grade. This book is funny, action packed, reflective, and utterly gutting. It will transport you back to middle school and definitely make you cry—but maybe also heal some wounds along the way
