3.5 stars. Really the .5 came towards the end, especially with the authors note.
Unlike others, I am very glad I didnt have this book at 16. At 21, maybe. But at 16 I was Courtney - in love with my gay best friend. And trying to be everything a best friend is while also needing space. (Thankfully, I moved on and we are still wonderful friends.) This book would have confused me to the end of days.
As someone who has questioned her own labels, it is a good book to have. The dialogue is a bit odd, yes, and everyone is super electrified with sex, but it feels like three teens being conflicted and causing drama. It feels...real?
I do wish a thruple or poly relationship would have come out of it, but it wouldnt have felt genuine.
