This was lovely! Part self growth, part mental health journey, part queer romance. I loved all of the complicated, imperfect characters trying to figure things out. While there were some over the top or unbelievable elements to the story it was all grounded in real life issues, racism, misogynoir, homophobia, living up to our parents and our own expectations, struggling to understand our mental health and get help, struggling to be vulnerable and open with those we love and care for. Just a really lovely book, I listened to the audiobook which was great, but I'd love to get a physical copy for a re-read.
Graphic: Racism
Moderate: Self harm, Mental illness, Homophobia, and Panic attacks/disorders
