I picked this book up immediately after reading It's Elementary by the author. I wanted more of her writing and this didn't disappoint at all. Even though it's YA, I could easily put myself in both Delilah and Reggie's shoes. Both had elements that brought back so many memories when I was younger and discovering myself.

No matter what anyone may say, it's really hard to be authentically yourself. It was when I was in HS, and with how much social media has evolved since then, it can't be easier.

I may have been screaming at Reggie often while reading this, I love the arc Delilah and he went through. He needed to grow to match Delilah's and when it happened, it was perfect!
