This book took me back to my 2016 Tumblr fandom era! I loved the internal monologue, stream of consciousness writing style because it was so easy to follow. I loved getting to know Aled, Frances, Raine, Daniel, and Carys as they navigated their futures after finishing school. I could very much relate to "School Frances" and her outer studiousness and cleverness coupled with her inner nerd. AND IT WAS SO REFRESHING TO SEE A STORY WHERE A BOY AND GIRL ARE FRIENDS AND DON'T FALL IN LOVE!!! And a YA book where romance doesn't take over the entire plot! I am loving Alice Oseman's work :)
