4.5 - It’s honestly refreshing to have Black youth love stories that’s not wrapped in oppression, black trauma, being degraded, etc. I hugged this book for a minute or two and sighed happily. My teenage self wish I had something like this growing up! I appreciate all of the authors for this work and representation of cultural backgrounds, sexual and gender identity, skin color, and body positivity. The representation was..refreshing. Now if this gets turned into a movie- I’m down!

For now this is my review- I’d like to sit on the warmth and positivity this has brought to my being.
