You know when you read a book at just the right time and everything just clicks? That was this book for me. I’m at a loss for words right now and I want to just sit in all the feelings that this book brought with it.

I loved that this book was messy and didn’t shy away from all the scary and hard things that life has to offer. It was also filled with so much love and the space to find yourself. And Grace was just the character that I needed in this story. I loved that she was allowed to have an existential crisis (I felt that all the way to my bones). I loved that Grace was able to let herself sink as far as she needed to before finding the help she needed. And while I might not have agreed with her cutting all communications with her support system, I think she did what she needed to.

One of my other favorite things about this book was the friends/roommate! All of them were amazing and I loved that they just created their own little queer family. Also, Yuki is so cool! I would give anything to listen to a podcast like hers.

All in all, this was an amazing book. And it fully deserves every ounce of praise its gotten and so much more. Honey Girl is getting a five out of five stars from me.
