A review by bookishvicky
Some Girls Do by Jennifer Dugan
3.5
Very cute read! Also such an important one. I think this goes along with THE LONG RUN by Acker for “books I want to hand to queer/ questioning teens so they can find who they are and read a charming book while doing it”.
The double POVs in this book was done well, and the dialogue felt natural. I also love the distinct voices of each FMC; plus, the cover is adorable.
I did think a lot of subplots got lost in the grand narrative, and some characters could have been either more fleshed out or cut entirely, but it didn’t take away from the main plot; just sort of added a lot of unnecessary conflict that got resolved kinda fast or forgotten about.
Solid read.
