Yes No Maybe So

Great Characters

I really liked this book even though politics and teen romance aren't my favorite. It has truly interesting characters that kept me invested in them through the entire story. The romance was a little painful at times, but mostly because of how well it captures what it's like to be in love when you're 17. The politics are extremely polarized (democrats are good and wholesome, republicans are evil racists), but, strangely, it didn't feel preachy. It felt like looking at things through the un-jaded eyes of a teenager. And there were good and bad things from characters on both sides.

At its heart, this is a story about family and friendship, and it left me feeling happy and warm inside.
