This is a fun and adorable #OwnVoices story about an autistic Palestinian teenager struggling to navigate the world of friend groups, secrets and crushes.

The main character, Jessie, is obsessed with all things 90s, including 90s movies. Even though it’s set in  modern time, ‘Something More’ truly felt like one.

This also made me want to rewatch Buffy even though I just finished my 4th rewatch. #TeamSpike
