Sick Kids In Love by Hannah Moskowitz
5.0

I borrowed the print version of this a while ago but my hands weren't up to the task of holding hard covers so it went back without reading. I am so glad I came back to it! It's a YA story about two kids with chronic illnesses (one with Rheumatoid Arthritis and the other with Gaucher's disease) who meet at the hospital and have an instant bond. They become best friends and then navigate becoming more, as our MC gal usually doesn't date since she thinks no one will want to put up with her chronic illness life. I really related to their discussions about and experiences with fatigue, pain, and trying to figure out how to socialize but still prioritize health.
