Needs a Trigger Warning...
Had to roll my eyes at the beginning with the knock off of “Love Simon” by Becky Albertalli and the communication via emails. The book even references the book / movie! Run of the mill book about two boys falling in love with each other and dealing with homophobia, one family being heavily religious / christian and keeping their relationship secret. Was an okay read but needed big warnings. Read at own risk.
Graphic: Homophobia, Religious bigotry, and Outing
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts and Suicide
