It's Ophelia's senior year of high school, and while her friends sort out details about prom, she's content to tend to her rose garden and just be her usual boy-crazy self. But when Ophelia develops a crush on classmate, Talia, she begins to question not only her sexuality but everything she believes about who she is and how her friends see her too.

I cannot express how much I loved this book! Debut author Raquel Marie has so much voice in her writing and pours the best of it into Ophelia, a beautiful and richly crafted character who leaps off the page. Not only that but Ophelia is surrounded by a super diverse group of friends (not only in sexuality but in race as well). I think this book has the potential to speak to young adults learning about themselves and their sexuality and especially those who aren't quite sure where they fit in.

This is easily one of the best books I've read this year. I will be recommending this book all over the place.
