Definitely my least favorite of her 3. I liked Leah's voice, and HS me would have identified with her a lot, but there isn't really any plot and it feels like a lesser copy of Simon but with bi-girl characters this time. Meh.
Thank god that's done. I never want to see this book again.
Initial Thoughts: I'll be honest, I read this for more Simon and Bram. I initially was not into reading about Leah's story, but as soon as I started, I immediately loved Leah and was rooting for her! Yes, I still had my Simon and Bram scenes which were adorable, but I genuinely cared about Leah's story.
2.25/5 stars
Imagine going about your day knowing someone's carrying you in their mind. That has to be the best part of being in love- the feeling of having a home in some else's brain.
first book spoilers so beware

to Abby which I'll forever be bitter about.
"Lowkey bi, a little bit bi. Just be bi. Like, come on.""What? No." She draws herself up. "You don't get to decide my label.""It's not a real label!"
