- This was really interesting coming of age story considering that our FMC is 25 years old 
- I really like the writing style here, I kinda felt like I was reading her diary or thoughts 
- I get that she was obviously really sheltered because of cultural and family dynamics but I felt like there was biphobia that she didn’t really learn from. 
- I liked that there was character growth for not only the FMC but for the people around her
