This is a beautifully written book about discovering or reclaiming your identities. In many ways, the romance is secondary to this theme of loving yourself.
Unfortunately, this is one of the many recent releases where the title is based on an insignificant, throwaway comment and makes no sense. It is, most assuredly, not about obnoxious Bay Area bros (okay, maybe one or two), so don’t let that turn you away.
Do check the content warnings, but don’t let that scare you off. Nothing is graphic.

Moderate: Biphobia, Death, Genocide, Homophobia, Car accident, Death of parent, Lesbophobia, and Outing
Minor: Body shaming, Bullying, Fatphobia, Infidelity, Misogyny, Rape, Sexual content, Grief, Murder, Alcohol, and Colonisation
Consistent reference to the Armenian genocide with very brief references to rape and murder.
Contains a lot of baby gay angst.
Fade to black romance, some vague sexual references.
