3.5 stars - i love a coming of age novel that isn't fantasy driven. i even more so love queer ones that aren't high school focused. now, while i love these things, i found the way this is written in an almost prose, scattered way not to be to my liking. i can picture people enjoying it (sally rooney similarities to me), but i think that took a lot away from me. the characters didn't have much development and were hardly lovable (which is big when it's so character driven). i was rooting for the main character to figure herself out; truthfully, i didn't care much about her. i wanted to know more about natalie, but i didn't feel like i got that which took away some connectedness. all in all, it was still a great, newer queer book, i was just not impressed with the writing and characters.
