I overall really enjoyed this book, especially once all the characters were fully eatablished. It was a bit YA in its writing style and how characters interacted - queer gen z college students - but in a way that was the most appropriate way to frame this book. Sav’s bisexuality made me feel really seen as someone to whom that label has always mattered, and the exploration of navigating college/high school friendships, assault, and exploration of sexuality made this a book I wish I’d read my first or second year of college. Really grateful that this book exists.
