If You’ll Have Me by Eunnie

**Thank you to NetGalley and Penguin Teen for the eARC. This in no way changed my opinion or rating**
This was so cute! The art style is very appealing and fluffy. I really like the character design, especially. It's nice to see a story that centers around two women of color. The romance was cute and well paced. I usually don't love a "misunderstanding" trope, but this may be the one time it was actually helpful and necessary for both characters to grow and show that they've changed over the course of the book. I like that Momo and PG each have separate lives and friends. It was nice that the whole book wasn't just their relationship, but showed both of them having a full character arc. I also really liked that the characters ask for consent and expressly state on the page that it's ok not to move too fast in a relationship without fear of the other falling out of love. That's an important aspect of relationship novels geared towards teens and I appreciated it's inclusion. Overall, I really enjoyed this title and would recommend it, especially if you like the Heartstopper series.
