Yall I loved this book. It’s so good. Deep and emotional. A gorgeous lover story with reminders of the pressures we put on our self, mental health, and depression. Jo is a wonderfully written main character - rooting for her every second. Mal was it for me but I understand why folks love Ezra. That ending????? Just perfect.
Also Kelechi and Kieran and Ampersand being the real best friends in this.
