This book 🥰. The only word I can think to describe it is: tender. Honestly, I finished it several days ago, and I can't stop thinking about it. The way the MCs care for one another, and the absolute depth of their love and friendship is so damn aspirational. The author did an amazing job of threading the needle from the time Lucky and Ellis first met as kids, to their choices through adulthood. Everything revolving around queerness and neurodiversity was handled in such a loving way, and while I kept waiting for the "other shoe to drop", it never did. This is just a truly adoring study of what love can and should be. 💖
