pros: - the cover <3 - most of the characters were well ritten (shout out to kim and topher <33) - vermont seems rad - recognizes that coming out and comipros: - the cover <3 - most of the characters were well ritten (shout out to kim and topher <33) - vermont seems rad - recognizes that coming out and coming to terms with sexuality is HARD - the whole concept of "writing letters i never send to people in my life" was endearing to me
cons: - that ending was a lil too neat and tied up with a cheery red bow - freaking theresa :/ - (view spoiler)[i feel like the romances between both james and theresa & james and topher were hella glossed over (hide spoiler)] - WHY DID HE STILL RUN THE 10K that was so funny to me tbh...more

This book reminds me of Ramadan muselsels (drama shows), but those good quality ones,not the ones with excessive zoom and bad crying.Ramadan muselselsThis book reminds me of Ramadan muselsels (drama shows), but those good quality ones,not the ones with excessive zoom and bad crying.Ramadan muselsels love to feature renditions of A Thousand And One Nights, and this book would make the perfect muselsel. The love triangle was immaculate, Khalid brings the bad-boy trope that I have come to love, and t h e f o o d. I'm still feeling sus about Despina but we'll see. The only thing that didn't make it a five was that some insignificant parts (like the archery part at the beginning) were dragged out, and better parts were way too short. Overall great YA fiction! * NOTE: its kinda ...more
