This book felt like it would make a good movie….a teenage rom-com movie that is cheesy but fun. (And honestly this might be the exception that proves the rule that the book is always better than the movie). I thought the story was cute, but it wasn’t ground breaking and felt pretty typical to the movie tropes that exist for high school movies. The main dorky character is having a hidden physical relationship with one of the most popular girls and while he tries to figure out how to bring that relationship out of the shadows the perfect for him geeky girl appears leaving him endlessly confused. I did like the queer representation (with side characters). I also loved the level of geeking out the author did even if Anime is not my particular geek cup of tea, the passion was fun. I also liked the play and the comparisons between the play and the story in this book. I gave it 3.5 stars which I rounded down because I thought there was potential not quite reached.
