To me this book was such a fantastic LGBTQ+ YA title from the premise, to the cover, to being able to hear Isaac Fitzsimons talk about the book before I read it, I was PUMPED to get to read it prior to publication day thanks to Penguin Teen #PenguinPartner + winning a finished copy from BookishFirst & it's just gorgeous.
YA today NEEDS more books that have such hope and realistic situations that ended in a positive way for all, that show real issues that put teens against big issues and this one had it all. How Fizsimons covers the discrimination and fear, first crushes and friendship, this book was just a joy to read. I loved the quick and easy writing style, with just the right amount of romance, family and friendship to give Spencer a supportive background.
Super excited to read more from Isaac in the future, what an incredible debut, 4.5 stars from me!
