Plot - 3.5

A cute collection of short stories mainly about new or young love.  Levithan captures the feeling of love purely and made me feel like i was back at school.

I was a little disappointed at only having 1x f/f love story, but i'll cut my losses and just accept that.

Rating 3.5 stars because I found some of the stories a little too convenient and a little naive. But that's what YA is and i appreciate that. I think I mainly felt that way because (obviously) we only saw the intense moments.
