funny lighthearted mysterious fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes

I really enjoyed this! The dynamic of the book was really well composed, and I was a huge fan of the “academic rivals to lovers” trope. I loved that this showed that this showed the perspectives of LGBTQIA+ people in small town Alabama, and how they were able to overcome social barriers to achieve happiness. Chloe and Shara were a great pair, Smith and Rory were so sweet, and Georgia and Summer were such a power couple. Amazing book, and it had an excellent plot!
