Moderate: Alcohol, Suicidal thoughts, and Sexual content
There is some wording that, due to the time the book came out, is not contemporary and some people might take offense to that, even though it was the best at the time for a subject we were still learning aboutbluereads04's review against another edition

1.5
The characters are annoying and unlikeable, there’s no “good” characters, and all of them are selfish and self centred. It shouldn’t be labelled a “queer” novel as often it’s discussion of gender is laced with transphobia and the only trans character is misgendered and labelled as “confusing” for the entirety of his presence. The characters only act for themselves, and are upset by the consequences of their actions. Gave this book a 1.5 because it’s a good concept, but it ends there.
Graphic: Suicidal thoughts and Toxic relationship
Moderate: Fatphobia, Body shaming, and Transphobia
Minor: Racism and Sexual content
