This book was beautiful and it described the transition to adulthood in a very realistic way. The discussions around identity and friendship were interesting and the characters were very loveable. It's an LGBTQ+ book that is not filled with lots of cliches but instead explores mIm relationship with fresh eyes. I thoroughly enjoyed the whole read
