I'm not going to rate this because this book isn't for me. I am an old — high school drama exhausts me. (By that standard, I've always been an old; H.S. drama always exhausted me.) Also, I haven't read "Simon vs The Homo Sapiens Agenda" yet, so it took me 10 chapters before I could keep these characters straight, and I still don't feel like I have a strong grasp on their personalities (or why any of them are friends). So I didn't love "Leah on the Offbeat." I think I wanted more humor to help carry me through, and I didn't find Leah to be as hilarious as some readers did. It's solidly written, captures that banter vibe of a H.S. friend group, represents diverse nerds well, addresses some minority issues and stereotypes in ways that feel authentic to the characters and setting, nails the senior prom drama, and gives us a strong bi woman main character who is apparently a kick-ass drummer and artist with superior snark who rocks her plus-size body and resting bitch face. So there are definitely parts of it that I loved. And that cover —
