This book is wonderful, amazing, and full of honest emotions, raw feelings, happiness, sadness, love, friendship and amazing relationships between lovable characters. 
The whole cast is so gorgeous, inside and outside, the characters are fully fleshed, well developed and each has a distinctive personality. 
I loved how the story unfolded, how the characters discover who they are, who their friends are and what they want their relationship to be. 
The rep in this story is so well done, characters are from all types of different backgrounds and are all different sexualities, and the asexual spectrum was explored very beautifully and gracefully by the author. The mental health was also very well researched.
I absolutely love this book it deserves more than 5 stars, it deserves the world, and it deserves to be read by so many more people and enjoyed by everyone ready to read a love story full of raw emotions, full of humanity, and very real. 
I could go on and on for ages, but I think it best to pick up this book and read it. 
Or re-read it !!
