*screams* Listen. I started reading this book with a half-baked idea of what I was getting into, and I ended up enjoying it way more than I thought I would.

This was quite a ride. If I were to explain it very simply, I would say it was about gays trying to navigate high school, getting together, and gays leaving cryptic notes and gay panicking here and there. 😭😂

However, it was also about identity, about survival, about love we haven't really noticed before but found, about the people around us and the multitudes they hold. This book was funny, and heartfelt, and it was a delight to read.
