This is my favorite book in the Osemanverse, for a lot of reasons. Primarily, it’s a coming of age novel that has romantic elements, but doesn’t hinge on very predictable romantic tropes. In the end, it’s an exploration of mental health, trauma, abuse, and real life vs internet life. It is beautifully done. I grew to love every character. One thing I especially love about Alice Oseman is the way she has just as many kind and understanding parental figures in her books as terrible, neglectful ones.
