Greta & Valdin by Rebecca K Reilly
4.0

Two mixed-race Māori queer siblings navigate young adulthood of unrequited love, heartbreaks, and a loving yet sometimes chaotic family. G&V is a character-driven novel filled with love and laughter. The readers learn about the duo and their family dynamic through character vignettes alternating between the two siblings' POVs. While G&V is mostly plotless and meanders until the last 10%, I loved the balance of hilarious and earnest moments. I recommend this joyous celebration of love in all its forms to those who enjoy no-plot-all-vibe character studies.
