This book fits in a warm, fuzzy space between Heartstopper, Meryl Wilsner’s books, and Casey McQuiston’s books. It’s a solid, engaging, coming-of-age story to which many bi folks will relate (and, for those who are not bi, provides a great window into the tricky things about being bi). It’s the rare YA in which I was borderline upset there was no epilogue. I also would not be upset at all if there were more books in this universe: the supporting cast is delightfully interesting and I would like to spend more time with them.
Definite bonus points for the ADHD rep as well.

Graphic: Outing and Biphobia
Both of these things are challenged.
