I loved this one. The characters in the romance actually communicate and attempt to talk thing out with each other? wild?! Unabashedly a queer story for the queer kids filled with rage and the queer kids who never got to be out without scrutiny, who always had to hide from their family. And ESPECIALLY for all those queer kids with religious trauma.
