- SOMETHING LIKE POSSIBLE is essentially "what if Leslie Knope was a bi teenager?" and I loved every moment of it.
- Madison's drive makes her at times a frustrating character, but I understood her and cheered for her throughout it all. Plus, Moreland is so good at writing complicated teenage emotions and delicate coming outs.
- This book takes a hard turn at the end into some heavy subject matter. I know it's sometimes annoying to call a book "important," but I think this is for young girls. It's something that's not often explored with nuance at this age level, and I'm glad for it.
