this book was rly cute. i did get a bit frustrated when
nishat told flavia she didn’t want to be with her because she wasn’t out. actually i got a lot frustrated.
other than that i rly enjoyed the book. i related to a lot of the homophobia nishat encountered.
although it was really hard to read her parents’ initial reactions to her sexuality, the end gave me a lot of hope
