Only Mostly Devastated by Sophie Gonzales

Yaaaaaas.
This was exactly what I needed right now : a Grease/HSM-like story about two boys finding each other again after falling in love over summer.
Every character had depth and was interesting in one way or another. The relationships, not just between Ollie and Will but also between everyone in the friend group AND with family.. were well done too!
Altogether, despite some seriously heavy topics (cancer, homophobia, [internal]biphobia, death of a loved one), it still ended up being a story that made me feel really happy when reading. Maybe cause the characters are really likeable and their journeys touching in many ways.
