I was expecting a swoony, sweet rom-com but reading a YA adult fiction which deals with heavy issues like diaspora, racism, adapting and identity crisis enlighten my day because the author’s approach from the narration of Frank was so genuine, realistic, a little bit harsh but truly honest. However, like I said, it does pack a lot of punches at the end. So it's not the fluff were a kiss solves all your problems. The book points again and again that Frank is against all the racial discrimination his parent do, but not even once he RISES UP TO THE OCCASION TO CALL IT OUT. And in turn hides his first white girlfriend, treats her horribly, lies to her all the time and than cheats on her. As I said, not a fan.
