Come nel primo dell'amica geniale la scrittura è fenomenale e coinvolgente, però non posso dire di aver apprezzato il libro. Devastante e deprimente non vedevo l'ora di finirlo ://

I really loved the way this book navigated difficult topics such as being outed, microaggressions, racism, homophobia... Etc.
I didn't enjoy it that much though, as the style was too simple for my taste and the plot kind of repetitive and boring.
On the other hand I feel that this would be a great book for younger readers and to queer poc that want a lighthearted (check tws tho) book where they could feel represented 💖

However I cannot recommend this book enough if you're into her style. I've marked a lot of passages because they were either relatable or really reflective. It is also hopeful, kinda, and even though nothing happens in the book, it still amazed me and kept me engaged from the beginning till the end.
