stop. i can’t right now.
this book hit way too close to home. i don’t know what more to say.
probably rtc
so coming back to this book, it’s probably not 5 stars. there’s many things that weren’t perfect, and the main romance didn’t live up to my increasingly high standards. with that said, the emotions i felt during this are unmatched. i feel guilty after the rollercoaster that just happened not giving 5 stars.
i’m going 4.75 stars for now, because this isn’t the best book ever, but it could be my favorite book ever.
update like 2 weeks later: this book is aging like fine wine for me. the more i think about it, the more i realize how good it really was. if you ask me what my favorite book is, there’s a good chance i’ll say this one right here.
pre-read: ya? check. sapphic? check. academic rivals to lovers? check. christian school homophobia that i know is going to hit me right in the heart? check. CASEY MCFREAKINQUINSTON? CHECK!
GIVE IT TO ME PLEASE
