Thank you to both Goodreads and Simon & Schuster for hosting the giveaway that allowed me to receive a finished copy of this book!

It's a 4.5. Maybe even higher than that. But it doesn't feel right to give it a five star. I'm pretty particular about those.

Lee is a flawed protagonist. A "messy bisexual." As a bisexual, I freaking hate that term.
It can be hard to like a protagonist who gives your entire sexuality a bad rap. I get that that's the point. I respect Lee's polyamory. When I noticed that this book had been tagged polyamorous, I was so excited. And I liked that part. If you have any polyamorous book recs (especially if they're YA) please send them my way. I've just had some bad experiences with literally to my face being told I'll probably cheat on any partners I have because I'm bi. So I struggle with Lee. 
Also, I'm not really into the pretentious artist thing, but it really wasn't so bad here, especially after the first chapter when I thought that would be half the book.

I really like all the family dynamics in this book. Lee's family, both her parents and also their friends, seems so loving and realistically flawed. It was one of my favorite aspects of the book, as it often is.

Max and Risa were my favorite characters. Max was obviously so cool and Risa could have been super interesting if just a little more focus had been put on her.

Lastly, podcasts in books are apparently a thing I love. Obviously, I LOVE Radio Silence by Alice Oseman and I read the first chunk of Sadie by Courtney Summers. (I'll probably finish it one day.) The podcast sections were my favorite parts of the book. If you know any books with podcasts in them (ideally not thriller) please recommend so to me as well. Thank you! :)
