Imogen, Obviously by Becky Albertalli
5.0
Words won’t be enough to describe the deep love I have for this book. Becky beautifully portrayed so many things within this story and I can’t wait for everyone to read it.
I hope this book opens conversations about the societal problem with forcing people out of the closet, with accusations of queer baiting, with owing anyone an explanation of your identity. I hope folks will read this and feel as validated as I did in my experience, and think harder about how we can be more understanding and leave more space for our “straight” pals to feel safe before they’re ready to explore or identify that they could be in the community.
Read this, multiple times, and get copies for everyone you know.
