I loved this,, sO MUCH. All the characters are soo good and well-written and have really good dynamics. It works through so many different themes super well and the internal and external conflicts were so well intertwined. The LGBTQIA+ characters were just there and lovely and awesome and and I just-ugh, I love it so much. Nonbinary, bisexual/pansexual (not explicitly stated), lesbian, wlw and mlm rep <3 ahh, it’s so good. The main character, Bree, isn’t explicitly queer, but a lot of the other characters are. I can’t say much about the POC rep because I’m white, buut, the focus on mother/daughter relationships made me want to ball and all the women/nonbinary character(s) made me feel so validated and fluttery. 10/10 would recommend (and support the hell out of Tracy Deonn, she is awesome as all hell)
