Vitis

This book wasn't very high on my TBR but I ended up listening to it because it was available on Libby. And I'm SO glad I did - I ADORED it! The story is cute without being cliché. And the dialogues were so well done, I laughed out loud several times. Also, the audiobook was narrated by Julia Whelan who's great, so that was a nice surprise. This just became one of my favourite books of the year!

This book should be mandatory reading for everyone once they reach voting age.

I listened to this as an audiobook, and while I'm sure reading the book would have been great, the voice actors brought even more vulnerability and humanity to the characters. The chapters from Lily's point of view were so honest and authentic, you could tell they were written by someone with experience on the subject matter (i.e. Jennifer Finney Boylan). This was my first book by either of the authors but definitely not my last!
