First I just want to say that I genuinely enjoyed this book it was so fun and exciting!!
The representation trans, bi, and gay representation in the book didn’t feel forced at all and it was very natural and flowing throughout the whole book. I also felt that, with the book being based in different places in space, the many cultures and languages that were mentioned in the book was also a wonderful detail that really helped to make the setting.
The action throughout the book was also very fun for me to read, I actually had to put the book down and get up to walk around a few times while reading this because I was so stressed out by the situations they were in. I also felt like with the high-achieving students that they are, the family dynamics and mental health issues that were portrayed in the book were so well done and realistic. The behavior from the main character was so real and relatable to me especially as someone who has not always made the best decisions.
THE CHARACTERS WERE SO FREAKING AMAZING AND LOVABLE!! They’re all so different yet the same and I hope you guys read this book to find out cause it’s actually so good 😊
One last thing I want to mention, is that I love the cover of this book, and the hard cover colors are so cute 🥰
