Love that this touches on that and brings attention to it, but it's too bad the rest of the story didn't live up to a strong premise and message.

I agree with you, a lot about her actions seems ridiculous, but I love the topics this book explores and I'm definitely interested in reading it.

It sounds like it comes near to extraordinary or more important, normalizing. It may be a good foray into other stories of this nature. I think normalizing LGBTQ teens is what is needed now.

I see the importance of reading this book but what else is there? What makes it better than the rest of the books with the same theme? I don't know.
