4.5 stars. I really liked this book! I had a great time following Elsie throughout the summer and watching her tackle family, friendships and love as a bi teenager. Even though she made some choices that I disagreed with, it was interesting to see where she- and others- ended up in because of them . The other characters were great such as Joan, Ritika, Felix and Ada (Tyler can screw himself). We find out more about Elsie's family and their complicated history which leads to some painful discoveries but also room for hope as well.

The ending was so heartwarming!

If you're looking for a queer, coming of age novel I highly recommend this!

No but seriously, did Zaria and Mayumi kiss or not?
