One of the main characters (Jeremy) was just really awful to pretty much everyone. It was hard for me to read.

I knew while reading this it was going to be another hard book to rate. It deals with very difficult topics and appears, that it could be a rom-com. But it is not. It's about rivals who are exes trying to be homecoming king.

I received an ecopy of this book via Netgalley; however, my opinions are my own.

I really enjoyed the emotional growth of both of the main characters and honestly, this really exceeded my expectations. You know it's a good YA novel when the main characters stress you out.

It’s an okay book with lovable, diverse characters and a lot of character development but it lacks some depth.

I really enjoyed this book. I think it is beautifully told and having listened to it in Audiobook form I can recommend this way of enjoying the book. The narrator is Trans and brings a truth to the telling.

I also enjoyed the reflection on how transphobia comes in different forms and that even in the Queer community trans people can face transphobia.

4/5 highly recommend
