This bisexual disaster,  Maggie, needs a date for her sister's coming-of-age party.  The trouble is three friends of hers have sparked maybe more feelings in her.   First is the ex-boyfriend, the second is the straight friend, and the third is the new girl who came to town,  To short out her feelings and satisfy an art project photographer Maggie spends on one time with each capturing photos reflecting on the different feelings sparked through each friend.

This was a cute story.  As I listened to this book, I was taken into the mind of our MC trying to get the gist of what friendship feelings versus romantic relationship feelings,  I thought the flow of the book was well done as spacing out Maggoe's art project with other events throughout the book making it feel realistic.  The cast is diverse coming from racial to sexual orientation. 

 Overall it is a YA romance where the out of the closet is not the focus instead it is just established and normalized as Maggie is a queer character focused on her relationships from family to love and not a coming out story. questioning if MC is LGBT
