This book is really tough. It’s great don’t get me wrong. It’s well written the characters are compelling and I found it generally engaging. I just wasn’t expecting how intense this book is. When it says mature content as a warning it’s talking about rape, depression, abuse, eating disorders and dismissed differently abled ability to function as an adult. The relationship between the two main characters is secondary to everything else. I would say it takes up between 5-10% of the total books contents. The rest is about their own personal struggles. So if you’re looking for a happy YA book and a romance the only trope you’re gonna get is a HFN. Of course Joel Lesley was brilliant. He did make a high school Jewish white girl sound like a 30 year old black woman with sass not bad just a little jarring.
