"Well-paced, brimming with drama, and utterly vital."—Kirkus (starred review)
This charming and bittersweet coming-of-age story featuring two girls of color falling in love is part To All the Boys I've Loved Before and part Simon vs. the Homo Sapiens Agenda. Winner of the Asian/Pacific American Award for Literature!
Sixteen-year-old Sana Kiyohara has too many secrets. Some are small, like how it bothers her when her friends don’t invite her to parties. Some are big, like the fact that her father may be having an affair. And then there’s the one that she can barely even admit to herself—the one about how she might have a crush on her best friend.
When Sana and her family move to California, she begins to wonder if it’s finally time for some honesty, especially after she meets Jamie Ramirez. Jamie is beautiful and smart and unlike anyone Sana’s ever known. There are just a few problems: Sana's new friends don't trust Jamie's crowd; Jamie's friends clearly don't want her around anyway; and a sweet guy named Caleb seems to have more-than-friendly feelings for her. Meanwhile, her dad’s affair is becoming too obvious to ignore.
Sana always figured that the hardest thing would be to tell people that she wants to date a girl, but as she quickly learns, telling the truth is easy…what comes after it, though, is a whole lot more complicated.

Boken är bra med berättarrösten är lite jobbig så tror den är bättre att läsa än lyssna på.

Fin bok. Vackra karaktärer och lyfter ämnen som att bli dragen ur garderoben utan att man själv är redo, rasism, okunskap och kärlek. Helt klart en mycket bra bok och läsvärd. Önskar den fanns när jag var ung

Den har ett viktigt budskap och tema. Innefattar HBTQ+ och POC. Men den är inte jättespännande, ganska förutsägbar och inte jätteskickligt författad. Ganska typisk ungdomsroman. Men ändå läsvärd.

Något frustrerande där jag inte alltid höll med huvudkaraktären. Tyckte inte riktigt att det skapades något band mellan huvudparet vilket gjorde att det kändes som om de inte riktigt var så nära varandra som boken påstår. Ändå värd att lyssna på.

Typisk high school story. Intressant konflikt och reflektion om rasism. Dock drivs alla andra konflikter i boken av otrohet vilket snabbt blir långdraget o tråkigt. Fanns det inget annat som hade kunnat hända ist för ännu en otrohet? Engagerad uppläsare.

Pretty good YA book about finding your identity and finding your place in the society. A coming of age story. It was narrated nicely.
