Loved this a lot. I expected it to go into more details regarding how society at the time judged homosexuality, so i was a bit disappointed by the lack of that, but overall loved the slice-of-life thing this book had going on. The tension (and pining!!) between the 2 characters was intense, and i was so happy when they finally got together. The only other minus i had for this was that I feel like there couldve been a bit more maybe? maybe a sequel or an epilogue? about 80-90% of the books pacing was so slow and now the ending and them confessing felt so rushed, which probably made me want more now that they're together. Although, the book itself didnt really have a plot to it though  so i know wanting a sequel wouldn't make sense hahaha I guess i just wanted to see more of them together, not that they FINALLY are.

Liked the characters, loved the writing style. Will reread again
