Well this was certainly entertaining at best. But unlike The Black Flamingo, I did not got invested unfortunately 🤧
I loved the themes of gender and identity in this story, as well as friendship. But as for the romance, it's a no for me 😅 I can also appreciate that Mack is a messy character (YA characters are allowed to be messy and learn from it ofc). But this whole thing overall just did not work for me.
