Very powerful romance that does far more than a traditional book in this genre might. I loved the character growth and development from both main characters, as well as the complex/intersectional representation from each of them. The third act breakup was my least favorite part of this book, which unfortunately left me a little unsatisfied with the ending. That being said, this was still a very solid read and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in a love story with some heavier themes.
