The Key to You and Me

unfortunately this is like a 1.5 for me. admittedly, i'm not a huge fan of stories where kids are MCs and i mostly like fantasy and shit, so this book was absolutely not aimed at me. if you generally enjoy high schooler stories, horse girls, teenage sapphics, etc, then you may well like this!!

if you don't really like this sort of story, here's what really turned me off of it lol. the story itself may have been fine but there were some really weird mistakes and tone issues that just killed the whole book for me (like, someone is wearing a “bi-proud” flag instead of “bi-pride” flag or the one sentence fragment a few chapters in that made no sense stylistically so it must have been an editing error??). there were enough of these little weirds that i just couldn't deal. skimmed the last half
