What a sweet book with such a fun premise—

Escaping the transgressions from her previous school & home life, Evie is hoping for a fresh start at her new boarding school. Everett Owen Riley (Evie for short) gets mistakenly placed into the boys dormitory after being misgendered by her name. The living situation offers unique obstacles as you’d expect, but also delivers the friendships she has been craving and maybe even a budding romance with a dorm mate.

Ughhhh this made me feel like I was in high school all over again and in the throes of life at this boarding school alongside Evie. There was humor, growth and a budding slow burn- friends to lovers romance that had me kicking my feet. This is probably my favorite Dahlia Adler book I’ve read so far! Super cutie read.

This book also different from previous DA books I’ve read in which Come As You Are featured lgbt side characters + Jewish rep.
