This book was so dang cute. I want David and Nina to write more books together!

Things I loved:

1. The characters. I loved all of them, but especially Kate and Mark. Their journeys separately and together were relatable and realistic.
2. The timeline. I wondered how in the world David and Nina were going to write a full story arc in the matter of a week's time, and in the matter of 270 pages. But dang did they kill it. Everything about the pacing was perfect.
3. The setting. There's so much to take in during pride week and the pair captured the sentiment and feeling perfectly. They also captured the best (and possibly worst) parts of SF.
4. The subject matter. This was a story of love, but it was also a story of friendship. It wasn't perfect, but that's the point. Humans, and teenagers, are messy. Let them be messy. Let them do stupid things and say stupid things and have to get out of it. Let them fall and be picked up again by the people who love them. And be real about all of it. This book spoke the truth and David and Nina captured the youth today with precision.
5. The narrators. Not just the characters but in the audiobook. They were the perfect fit and I highly recommend the audiobook if you're looking for something sweet and short.
