Phew, for a quick, cute read this one packed some punches! Both mcs battle some pretty significant insecurities, hers related to weight and his related to his dyslexia, and have difficult familial relationships. I love that although they help one another grow and become more confident, there isn’t the implication that they’re “saving” each other and their love isn’t a magical cure all to years of hurt from other people. April and Marcus are lovely and their romance was a joy to read. The way Dade weaves in the stories of some secondary characters has me eager to read the other books in this series as well!
Graphic: Ableism, Body shaming, and Fatphobia
