I was also listening to a Glee playlist and for some reason I found the song "Clarity" from season 4 extremely accurate to the book. Highly recommended!!...more

Algo que debo destacar es que cada personaje es tan único, y tiene su personalidad tan marcada que es imposible confundir une del otre. Lu fue de mis favoritas, dudo que sea una opinión impopular, me recordó a una gran amiga que estuvo a mi lado y me sostuvo en sus brazos cuando mi mundo se me venía abajo.
El libro me pareció muy interesante, la trama es muy precisa y no se desvía de su punto, definitivamente es más más character-driven than plot-driven, lo cual no suele ser my favorite thing in the world, pero creo que acá lo que ayudó fue que los capítulos sean cortos y again, straight to the point.
Otra cosa a destacar es que literal me lo leí en dos sentadas, lo cual fue key a la hora de elegir mi rating. Ya lo quiero tener en físico, me importa un carajo que aduana me lo retenga medio año. Necesito rayarlo y llenarlo de post-its y corazones. Tantas frases que me llegaron y esa escena final que me destruyó entero. Sin duda un nuevo favorito.

I had no expectations or whatsoever with this book and let me tell you that I enjoyed it. I'm so glad that I went through it with the audiobook because long chapters are not my thing at all and this way I just listened and let the time pass by. Because let me tell ya, I wouldn't have read this in physical format.
I loved the characters so freaking much!! Yes, Noah is a big time assh0l3 but it made him interesting in a twisted way. I'm sure the majority of us will agree that Devin was our fave even tho he was only a secondary character. I'd have loved to see in more depth is Devin's mental health and that kinda disappointed me...
The rep was spot on and I highly recommend it if you're looking for more trans representation in queer books. I honestly don't know how the book is categorized but for me it is a romance book. So something to def have in mind before you get into it.

The amount of representation it has it's just amazing! It didn't feel over the top or like a filler. It was just there, normal people in a fictional story. I'm not even sure if I have a favorite character because I adored every single one of them.
The plot was perfect, I know that for times it got a bit dragged down but nothing out of the ordinary for a middle grade story.
I honestly don't know how to express my thoughts into words. I'm speechless. It will def become one of my all time favorites.

4.4 ⭐ This book almost made me tear up! It was so freaking close but that doesn't mean it didn't adore it.
I think iI'M FINALLY OUT OF MY READING SLUMP!

I think it's the first book I've read with genderfluid representation and although I'm agender, and I can't say for a fact if it was well written or not, for me it was. At least the part about being trans and the whole concept of it.
It was really interesting to see the point of view of a middle grader and how tough it can be, specially being so young. The only problem that I had is that sometimes the dialogue felt more mature and older than the age of our MC which pulled me off at times.
Overall I thought it was a cute and important story and a fast read book. I highly recommend it ...more
