This graphic novel almost made me sob. It's a cute and realistic gay love story that stole my heart from the first page. We need more representation like this and I have hope that with authors like Alice Oseman, everyone can feel represented.

Cute , fluffy and adorable !! This isn’t a serious read at all. If you are looking for anything else except a cute fluffy romance with some angst moments then don’t bother. Of course, this isn’t really a serious review either.

The good -

Diverse and very diverse characters. one or two token characters for diversity purpose ? Nope , none of that.
Cute and adorable slow burn romance ( how many time have I used these words ??)
Slice of life light comic with well drawn characters.

The bad -

Of course, t
