Kindle Notes & Highlights
Or in my case, one capital “OH SHIT” moment, which, if I’m being honest, is what 95 percent of being a closeted gay teen is like.

“I got to look cool in front of my boyfriend,” Bryson says. “That’s winning.”
On this Friday night, we are just two boys kissing because we want to, because we like each other. And there is nothing at all wrong with that. Because love is love is love.
“You know what trope I really hate is when the main character decides to give up on the person they love in the name of protecting them.”
It was real then. And it’s real now. I’m using my wish now. I wish you were here. I miss you.
I choose to be happy. Because I can be. Because I deserve to be. Gay means happy, too, you know.
