really adored this book. From the relationship between Yami and Ceasar to the budding relationship and awkwardness with Yami and Bo. It was all just wholesome and relatable. This is definitely a book I wish I had in highschool.
The fear that Yami and Ceasar had to just be who they are in the comfort of their own homes due to rejection from their parents. Yami over working herself just to make sure they are secure when they are locked out. I loved how she immediately took steps to make sure they were going to be safe, but I hate how she had to feel like anyways. Yet this is the reality for many LGBTQ+ youth still living with their parents. To just put aside themselves for other happiness and peace of mine while internally they are suffering. And just like Ceasar, suffering in silence.
My absolute favorite part of this book was the mother's acceptance of her kid's sexuality... completely caught me off guard. AND the fact that their mom dropped her husband due to him being homophobic??? A queen 👸🏾 is what she is.
If you couldn't tell by now I completely and whole heartedly recommend this book 🩵
