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

“You can't tell whether people are gay by what they look like. And gay or straight aren't the only two options.”

OH MY GOD
Its been ages since I have read a graphic novel and as soon as I started reading this I remembered how awesome it felt to actually see your characters and they're expressions. I honestly loved all of the volumes, the first one I read it as an e-book and then I continued it from webtoon and I lo

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 :)
