3.0

felt very 'meh' about this through-out the whole of this book, but the ending really packed a punch! it was strong and containted some great lines. I got 'perks of being a wallflower' vibes from the narrative, and i get that this book can be really comforting to young queer and black queer people so i love it for that! it wasn't enterily my thing, but it reads very fast and is a great book to get out of a reading slump or something i think :)
