EMOTIONAL DAMAGE ðŸ˜
This is not a light read, it literally had me crying most of the time. As someone who has only recently came to terms with her own sexuality this hit all the right spots. Such a bittersweet coming of age about youth, friendship, queer love and self acceptance. I just want to give this book and its characters a hug that last forever 🥺 It's automatically up there with the rest of favorite books ever.
