Not 5 stars bc I'm a lesbian and it was too cisstraight for me sometimes but I liked it anyway! I still related to a lot of thing from both of them, I love them a lot (especially Marianne <3)
I don't really get the hype of this book, I somehow expected it to be really different and poignant but maybe it's only me idk!
