In the best way possible, this is probably the most lesbian book I've ever read. I'm a sucker for a good ol' sapphic romance and this made my heart so happy. 

I appreciated the authors ability to tackle tough topics such as parental relationships, SA, and coming out in such a fantastic way. Nothing ever felt forced or awkward. It was a great read!
