catherine!!a lot of this was just a bit too ridiculous for me. the dialogue didn't feel as authentic as i would have liked. and scottie annoyed the heck out of me for a good portion of this. my only saving grace was irene. a whole extra star for irene.

catherine!!i ADORED the first half of this, so much that i was sure i would give it five stars. the second half is where it fell apart for me. there was a lot explored that didn't feel wrapped up, and the abrupt, bittersweet ending took me by surprise. i also didn't appreciate how mandy's redemption arc? if you could call it that? was handled. not a fan of the bullying-because-i-like-you storyline. honestly i would love a continuation of this to see plotlines carried out. i would love to see leighton and dylan grow more so that the story can end in a better place for their friendship.

catherine!!i really really loved this. the characters and their relationships felt so genuine, and i so appreciated all of the conversations (general queer/political discourse) they had throughout the book.

catherine!!this book tried to kill me. it is an emotional roller coaster. it made me uncomfortable to the point where i needed to take breaks from reading, i got so frustrated with the characters that i wanted to yell at them, i smiled from how cute it is, and i cried upwards of a dozen times. read at your own risk.

catherine!!i read this so many times as a kid that on this reread, every other line brought a wave of nostalgia. but i'd forgotten how easy percy is to love. he's so brave and loyal and kind always. what a wonderful protagonist for young people to follow and look up to. i'm newly grateful that i had these books in my childhood. they are truly excellent.
