Okay listen. This is the kind of queer media I have been looking for. The characters! The plot! It’s all so mundane and realistic I LOVE IT! 

This book resonated with me so much, it was funny, it was awkward. It was relatable. Let’s be honest we’ve all gone through a point where we searched up ‘Am I gay?’ on Google. 

I have so much to say about this story. About it’s importance in our society. This story needs to be read by every queer teen out there who is searching for a place they belong, searching for a place where they can see themselves. This book provides that and that’s what makes it so beautiful. 

I can’t wait to read more!
