This book is fluff with depth. The main character goes through an incredible journey of self-discovery, and I really enjoyed watching them grow. However, I do wish the love interest had been developed more from the start. It felt like his depth was only revealed toward the end, and I think it would’ve been stronger if we had a deeper understanding of him earlier.

The cringy moments throughout, especially at the beginning, had me laughing and covering my face in secondhand embarrassment (like, why did we think throwing our keys at a window was a good idea?). But even with those awkward moments are a big part of why this story was so incredibly fun. 

I absolutely loved how Noah came into his own and found confidence in his identity. Realizing that he can be a boy and still enjoy things like dance without anyone who matters batting an eye was such an important and affirming part of his journey.
