4.0
An emotional, heavier-than-expected story. This book has an incredibly strong sense of place. Made me fall in love with some characters and absolutely despise others. I wish the ending was a bit stronger—it’s realistic, but not as satisfying as I hoped.
Graphic: Sexual assault
Minor: Homophobia
