Thank you for all of your thoughtful and informative reviews--I appreciate them very much!
Aww I'm so glad you enjoyed this one (and I sense that I won't be the only one to comment that >.<)! I completely agree, it made me happy as well, and sometimes that's all that we need (coming from a reader who usually enjoy twisted characters as well ;)) Great review!

Thanks! And thank you for recommending it too :)
Also, the author is sooooo nice. I have a librarian friend who is friends with her and I told her how much I loved the book and she sent me a UK paperback signed with a bookmark and bookplate.
I read a few average reviews about this and I was disappointed because I really wanted to read it, but you gave me hope! I'll surely read it now :)
The word "cute" doesn't draw me in.
Neither does it attract me, lol. Now I'm convinced to read this. I wasn't going to try it because of your same reasons, but yeah, it looks like fun. Great review. :)
Having had gay friends at a high school in the south (and dating a girl, myself) it really isn't as bad as people make it out to be! I can't speak for Alabama, but Georgia really is not as bad as you'd think.

You know, this really doesn't surprise me. I've heard horror stories about the South, but I always assumed they're a bit like the horror stories about Northern England. I went to school in the North (considered more socially "backwards" than the South) and pretty much everyone was totally fine with you being gay.
Now I really really really want to read this. I'm so glad you got around to reading and reviewing it to help me make a decision!
Your review convinced me to read this book. I generally don't read these types of books either, but I think I will make an exception.

I hope you enjoy it too, Daniel :)
I don't even have anything to say about this book after reading your review! You've said it all. This book isn't what I would've expected or relate to-I'm not the books' intended demographic at all. 37 years old, mom of three little girls. But boy did I love this book! I loved It all
I have seen at least eight reviews done by you on books that have been recommended to me, some of them I've been soooo skeptical about but you definitely made me give them a chance because of your reviews. And once, I'm pretty sure you saved me from reading a book that I wouldn't have finished! Thanks!
I just wanted to tell you that I love all of your reviews. They really help me decide which books I should buy at the store. Thank you soooo much!!

Thank you, Emma ^_^
Couldn't agree more!!! Such a heart warming book that you don't want to finish reading it!! It's actually quite sad the fact that it only has 300 pages 😭
I’m starting this book tonight bc of your review, I’m in a reading slump and needed a light hearted contemporary but almost put the book down when I saw his dogs cringy name ‘Bieber’ haha but your opinion is the only what that matters so here goes nothing.....
This book was definitely fun 😊
I have to keep reminding myself that not all books have to be dark and depressing
This was a happy, warm and relatable story. The characters are funny, understanding and so warm. But I didn't like Leah being ignored by Nick and Abby .Simon and Bram were really cute though.
They made a movie adaptation of this book called "Love, Simon". I wonder how close it will be to the book.
Hey Emily! I just sent you a friend request. But clicked submit for your question. :(, so I will finish it here! ((Lets hope this is okay!) :),
question: what is your derset island book, favorite character ? (jeeh I hope that one is right!!)) favorite bookish abulm or abulm??? I’ll answer both ;))
my book would be Thidwick the big hearted moose picture book by Dr.Suess! I can not get enough of this book! Nor ever will I get tried of this book!!! Thus why it would be with me on that (lonely) island!
for my favorite character I would have to go with Gale (ah man I forgot his lastname.. :() )) from the Hungergames triology! That was my first book fandom and what got me into reading... also the maze runner series and marley and me (really sad memoir!!))
last question!!!
favorite aulbm! Rn either Nine to Five the broadway casting (our schools musical!!)) or Moana the soundtrack!!! ahaha Lin Mirindia Merlyll ((gosh I butctered his name sorry Lin!))
or for the bookish aublm. Funny story I followed the Simion vs the Homo Sapeians Addenda on insta. And the author had made a playlist for zoey?? I love that!
I hope these were the questions you ask everyone who wants to be you friend!!!
~~~hopestar!
XxX call me Madie!
-lets be friends :/;)

I created a book blog website and did a review on this book, go check it out and support please! ☺️
I know, I didn’t want to read it either! The corny title and cover and I am also not into romances but seriously I just watched Love, Simon and the only thing I can think about is finding a freaking book store and buying this book!
I unfortunately have already seen the movie, not knowing there was a book. (I know, I hate when I do this!! 😖😖😖) However, is reading it worth it? Is it any different from the movie?
It's still a good read. The movie kind of hit the highlights, in my opinion. It was very light on the details compared to the book.
Thanks for this review! I am going to bite the bullet and purchase the book now :)
I love heart warming books :)
