This book was adorable, but does far more than the trope in the title will tell you. On top of a perfectly cute romace plot, we get to see more into other aspects of these characters' lives. There are (two very different) complex family relationships, a discussion of religion and culture, and a look at friendship. This explored some tough topics while maintaining the lightness of a YA romance.
