TL;DR is that the book spoke to my inner teenager soul and gave her a big hug. I love this book. If you enjoy YA, read it. If you enjoy queer stories, read it. 

“I just want who I am to make sense.” yes, Imogen, yes. 

This book follows when Imogen goes to visit her pansexual BFF at college and to hang with her mostly-queer friend group. Imogen can’t put a finger on why she is so nervous, but as the weekend unravels, she has a little bit of an awakening. 

This story was fun and so sweet, with some fun hijinks and college life mixed in. The story focuses on finding our true selves independent of those around us. I love how the author built this amazing support system around the main character, but was also able to show a not so great friend and why it’s OK to let go of people we once loved as we change. 

While I am not bi, I feel (and reviews have corroborated this) that Albertalli did a great job of showing casual and overt bi-phobia. And how the characters respond and work through that is just amazing. 

I highly highly recommend reading this. And gifting it to a teen in your life!
