5.0

I truly cannot express how much I freaking love this book, I was deeply moved and filled with hope! I commend the choice to lean away from the trauma focused narrative and into the queer joy focused narrative. This was a delight to read and I hope everyone, regardless of their identity, reads this book so they can love Val and Riley as much as I did.
