Why you should read this book
  • It's a cute coming of age novel 
  • Sapphic love story

  • A lot of pop culture references i really enjoyed
  • Realistic examples of black culture and LGBTQİA+ struggles

Why I didn't give it 4 stars
I just knew the ending before even starting the book and you will quess right too. I felt like things happened so fast while listening even though I don't really think they did. There were not enough scenes that make me get excited or happy. 
To be honest, generally the only thing i want from a Y/A romance is to make me happy and squealing or excited. This book didn't do that much but i would still recommend it.
