Ugh, I loved this so much I was screaming the whole time, like, THEY ARE JUST SO CUTE UGHH.

So basically:

Charlie is gay and out, he kind of starts off in an abusive relationship with a guy who's er.. not out yet. (I really actually appreciated the depiction of sexual violence between two men because I think a lot of times we only think it can happen between men and women. In general, I just loved all the educational commentary about sexuality and gender norms in this book.) Charlie becomes frien

Okay so I've read this book twice and still love it as much as i did the first time that i read it. This book is so positive on everything and helps with more complicated things like toxic relationships in a very good way. And honestly even though i love red, white, and royal blue i loved this even more because honestly i think some people read queer books for the smut but i loved this book because it moved their relationship at a healthy pace and they weren't you know what every other page.

God, I cannot believe I finished this book that fast. Holy mcforking goodness. This book is the definition of wholesome. I love how it starts off with a worrisome teen who thinks he might have another crappy year because of his sexuality. This graphic novel shows what it's like to be mistreated because of a preference. It goes to show how people can change. It goes to show that love can be interpreted in many forms. And I love it. I can't wait to read the second book :)
