Perfect on Paper

That was so good! I haven't read ya book in a while and wow I really should have.

Some stuff were cheesy and cringey but that's a given, given the book is about and for teenagers. But I still related to a lot of stuff as an almost 30-year-old-woman. Especially that poor teacher who was like “hey, i'm only 27!” i felt it lool

The whole book dealt really well with queerness and identoty and what it meant about being bi and finding your place in this world. I wish I could have read it when I was 16/17, it would be a perfect read for me at the time, perhaps even help me figure stuff out. Too bad the book wasn't out back then!

Darcy and Brougham are awesome. I loved their friendship and how they figured stuff out. And Darcy)'s fears about being in a relationship with him, but even when she was still panicing she still made sure to communocate with him and calm his down.

Ainslyn was the best big sister ever and I felt so sorry for her for having to bear this responsobility while their mom was so busy.

Brooke... I was really angry with her by the end. She told people and caused Darcy to be suspended and for her to be pariah. Darcy fucked up and she knew it, and I get that Brooke was pissed and had right to be - but outing Darcy as the person behind locker 89 was a low blow. She should have been apologized too, for revealing Darcy's secret.

But I'm glad that she and Darcy made up and that Darcy included Ray too!

Brougham is the sweetest person in this book and he deserves the world and I LOVE HIM. He needs to be protected!
