2021 Goodreads Choice Award Finalist 2021 New York Public Library Best Books for Teens 2021 Cybils Award Winner 2022 GLAAD Media Award Winner 2022 Lambda Literary Award Finalist A sweet, queer teen romance perfect for fans of Heartstopper and Check, Please! Annie is a smart, antisocial lesbian starting her senior year of high school who’s under pressure to join the cheerleader squad to make friends and round out her college applications. Her former friend Bebe is a people-pleaser—a trans girl who must keep her parents happy with her grades and social life to keep their support of her transition. Through the rigors of squad training and amped up social pressures (not to mention micro aggressions and other queer youth problems), the two girls rekindle a friendship they thought they’d lost and discover there may be other, sweeter feelings springing up between them.

"A very good comic book, talks about a trans girl and a lesbian. Good friends turned to lovers. I personally love this book, very good writing and art style! "

Avery Chartrand

"This was a quick, sweet and uplifting read. I think it could've been developed into a longer read, but definitely works as is. It shines a light on listening to what people actually want, not what you think they should, but also speaking up for yourself and others. Also had some funny moments."
