You, Me & Heather Summers
The trouble with the girl next door is that she's supposed to be dead.
Three years ago, Heather Summers ruined Milla Daniels’ life and left town without a word, leaving Milla to cope with her parents’ messy divorce on her own. Now, all Milla wants is to get away and never think about her ex-best friend again. Her ticket out? The students working abroad program. With only a few months left to finish her application and get accepted, Milla is ready to put the past behind her until she sees a familiar car in her neighbor’s driveway. Heather’s back, and she has unfinished business.
Desperate to stop her lies from unraveling and rumors spreading, Milla agrees to go out with heartthrob and football star Griffin Owens, even if it means dealing with his toxic ex. But with her parents spiraling, Griffin’s ex tormenting, and her unresolved feelings for Heather, Milla’s life begins to implode, and the application deadline is almost here. She needs to get a grip on things fast, or she’ll remain stuck in her hometown for another year. Which is the last thing she wants—especially when she finds out what really happened three years ago.

Thank you to Tales & Teacups and Madison Rose for the eARC in exchange for an honest review!
Milla Daniels is in her final year of high school and trying to plan her next move: a year abroad in Europe. She needs to get away, because 3 years ago, her life kind of fell to pieces when her parents divorced and her best friend, Heather Summers, died. Except, she didn’t die, just moved away. And when Heather suddenly reappears in culinary class, Milla realises she’s needs to confront her complicated feelings for her ex-best friend. Oh, and finish her application!
‘You, Me & Heather Summers’ is a YA romance that follows our main character, Milla, as she deals with, frankly, a lot during her final year of high school. I appreciated the concept of the book, and I’ll always love seeing queer YA being written, because honestly, I needed this when I was younger, and I’m just happy that the younger generation have access to these books. Bisexual representation also makes me hella happy, especially the way this is handled, with the concerns our character has in her coming out journey being (unfortunately) all too common for bi people. This book tackles some serious themes, outside of queerphobia and (more specifically) biphobia. There are also wider subplots involving addiction, divorce, and the impacts these have on a family.
This book, while promising conceptually, just didn’t hit for me like I hoped. The pacing was fine, but the rate at which the characters’ emotions progressed (and sometimes regressed) just felt a bit too rushed - but maybe I’m not a teenager anymore, so who am I to say? I think some plot points and secondary characters were underdeveloped initially, which kind of lessened the impact of certain events later in the book. The writing was pretty fine, a pretty standard first person narrative for YA. Our main character was, again, alright - but I just feel we could have gone a little deeper.
Overall, I think this book was an easy read with an important message within it. Maybe I need to accept that I am no longer a teenager (sadly) and so I’m not exactly the target audience, but I also do feel YA isn’t limited just to a particular age group, and it can be enjoyed by anyone. And I did enjoy this, but it just didn’t get me like I hoped. A book with potential that I do think younger readers would get more out of.

Quick Opinion 💭: An achingly honest love letter to every girl who's ever felt in-between
Why I Read This 📌: I was given the opportunity to read the ARC of this book through Tales and Teacups PR!
My Summary 📝: When Heather Summers reappears in town after a sudden disappearance years earlier, Milla is forced to confront her past and her present. Torn between a steady relationship and unresolved feelings, she must navigate the complexities of bisexual identity, young love, and self-discovery in this emotionally layered coming-of-age novel.
My Review 🩷💜💙: This book shines a much-needed light on a part of queer YA literature that’s often overlooked. Madison Rose writes with remarkable care and authenticity, capturing the quiet confusion, emotional complexity, and internalized biphobia so many of us carry with us into adulthood. It’s the bisexual canon event: the familiar story of falling for your best friend while navigating feelings for a boy, told with such honesty that Milla’s voice felt like a mirror to my younger self. The story also thoughtfully explores the emotional differences in how men and women show up in relationships, the harmful narratives we internalize, and the strength it takes to claim your identity in a world that constantly questions it. I especially appreciated that the ending isn’t just happy; it’s healthy, grounded in real healing through therapy, reflection, and self-respect. Even if you’re not bisexual, this story offers empathy, insight, and a powerful spotlight on queer girlhood. I only wish I could’ve passed it along to my younger self.

This book is perfect for me!
Blitzed my way through it and it brought me out of my reading slump!!
I love messy characters and if it’s done right, it’ll come across with all the honesty that life isn’t black and white, humans aren’t perfect, we often don’t know who we really are, especially when we’re young.
Madison Rose creates all this fabulously and brings to life Milla, Heather and a whole host of side charters, including best friend Olive.. Everyone should have an Olive!
This is a kind of love triangle, Milla ends up “dating” one of the football players, Griffin, just as Heather, her ex best friend re-appears after leaving abruptly with her parents 3 years ago.
It’s pretty clear from the get-go that there was more to their friendship….
Milla is dealing with her parent’s divorce, her mum's drinking, desperately wanting to leave the small town she lives in, her feelings for Griff AND Heather, and trying to cover up a rumour that destroyed her friendship with Heather.
Griff has his own secrets, a toxic ex, trying to fix his own friendship with his best friend Tom, and proving himself to his father.
Heather is back with unfinished business, a secret she hates keeping from Milla the girls she’s always loved.
My heart clenched each time Milla & Heather watched each other being involved with someone else
There was so much going on, but not in a bad way! This book delves into heartbreak, loss, addiction, divorce, reflection & pain
I was totally invested in this YA story and rooting for Milla to find her way…… To Heather!....
Off to buy a physical copy…..

I had the privilege of being an arc reader for you,me and heather summers by Madison Rose.
By the end of the first page the story wasn't clicking for me. Im not saying its bad, I just think i may be the wrong audience for this story.
I think the reason I struggled to click with this story is because it drops you right into a point that makes it seem like its a book 2 continuation rather than a stand alone "as is" book.
I find it weird that everyone uses last names, i understand calling the teacher by her last name, but Milla's boyfriend using her last name almost every sentence or even her friends using her whole name almost every sentence. So odd.
At the 42% mark i understand the author was trying to do a story about being a confused young teen on their sexuality, but i feel like that story line is too buried under the hetro storyline, that it makes the queer storyline feel forced.

2.5 rounded up
thank you so much to Tales & Teacups Book Tours and Madison Rose for the chance to read this e-Arc in exchange for an honest review.
If you're looking for an addictive read that you don't need to take too seriously this one is perfect. It is very reminiscent of Wattpad novels I used to stay up into the early hours of the morning and read. I did end up doing the same for this one once I was 100 pages in!
I did enjoy the yearning and will-they-wont-they between Heather and Millia. That was definitely my favourite part.
However, what sort of spoiled this for me was the family drama. I think this book could be much more if the romance plotline hadn't be sidelined from the 60% mark.
All the drama just happen one after the other that it began to feel like a ridiculous soap opera.

You, Me and Heather Summers is a coming of age story navigating themes of sexuality, complicated family relationships, comphet/homophobia and addiction.
I really enjoyed this book! I loved the initial build up with Milla and Griffin and how their relationship blossomed, and how the story evolved to focus on Heather and her history with Milla.
And I liked how YMAHS was not just the story of a highschool love triangle: there were family troubles, affairs and divorce, the stress of planning for life after graduation, and more mature themes of substance addiction and misuse.
Finally, I loved how empowering it was to follow Milla and her journey to self-acceptance with her sexuality. I definitely recommend this book to anyone looking for a medium-fast paced read!

Thank you for the ARC read! ♥️
This book is beautiful and emotionally provocative, depicting the weight of questioning one’s sexual orientation. While this book focuses on Heather and Milla, the parallel stories happening with other characters really supports the theme of guilt, shame, and the need to be released from the mask we’re forced to wear every day. While the story promotes
love, acceptance, trust, and forgiveness, it isn’t without the grittiness, anger, denial, projection, or the consequences of actions, despite best intentions.
Truly a great read, especially in the realm of queer representation!

This book was so much more than I expected—it completely pulled me in. I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever related to a character as much as I did with Milla. Her story felt incredibly personal to me. She’s been through so many of the same life experiences I have, and because of that, her emotions, reactions, and struggles hit so much deeper. It wasn’t just a book—it felt like someone had put pieces of my own story onto the page.
I really appreciated how Madison Rose explored complex emotions without romanticizing them. The dynamic between Milla and Griffin was messy and real, and I was honestly happy with how things ended between them. It felt mature, grounded, and honest. Olive, too, was such a standout—loyal, supportive, and exactly the kind of best friend everyone needs in their corner.
And then there’s Heather. Despite everything she was keeping from Milla, I still found myself so genuinely happy reading about the moments they shared together. Their happiness—even if complicated—was palpable, and it made me root for them all the more.
This is a beautifully messy, emotionally layered read that tackles love, identity, and healing in such a raw and relatable way. If you’ve ever struggled to find yourself again after loss or heartbreak, this one will speak to you.

I had the pleasure of receiving an arc of this book in exchange for my honest review.
You, Me & Heather Summers is a will they won’t they teenage romance that covers the topic of being queer in a small conservative town where it’s hard to accept yourself when you see very little of how you feel represented around you. Milla moves school after a video revealing her biggest secret goes viral and her best friend moves away with no contact. Three years later Heather Summers returns and suddenly Milla is faced with all those feelings she had for Heather all over again.
As my favourite genre, I read a lot of young adult, however I feel this book has a very specific target audience. It’s hard to place because although I think this story is aimed at the younger end of young adult, certain themes probably weren’t. And although I could connect with parts of this story, I think I’m just a bit too old for it. For me it’s a been there done that, yes, this book would have been great back then but I wasn’t a fan of returning to this particular school environment and the intense peer pressure portrayed here.
I personally felt that the plot moved a bit too slow. It felt like the author wanted to squeeze too much in one story and because of that there were too many loose ends to tie up that ended up taking the last five chapters to do so.
In terms of characters… I’m not sure how I felt about them. I thought they were raw and realistic for teenagers but because of that and most of their personalities I can’t say I particularly liked them
(Which is fine and just a personal opinion). I feel like all these characters were just taking advantage of Millas confusion and it didn’t sit right with me at all. She’s trying to work out who she is and how she’s feeling while Heather and Griffin guilt trip her into choosing one of them and meanwhile her home life is blowing up around her like I would’ve had a breakdown if I were her. I think the way these characters were treating her was really immature and unfair. For the first 40% of the book I just felt like I was reading about a bunch of unlikable teenagers playing truth or dare and getting drunk at a party every week. It was very repetitive and not my cup of tea in that respect. It’s strange how the first half compared to the second felt like entirely different books.
We are purposely kept in the dark about what’s really happened between Milla and Heather but it was more frustrating than intriguing. I felt behind like I needed to catch up almost as though I was reading a sequel.
Overall this is a really well written coming of age novel that has the potential to be incredibly comforting for certain people just not necessarily for me.

I really wanted to like this book but it just didn’t hit the way I was hoping it would. Overall, I didn’t enjoy the first 60% of the book, but the rest of it was okay.
Before I rant, I want to touch on the things I enjoyed about the book. I think it did a great job getting across the confusion about figuring out sexuality and the fear of not being accepted. It also nailed the small town vibe and what it’s like seeing a loved one in the hospital after a near death experience .
First off, I felt like the book read younger than YA. The characters, despite being 17/18 year olds and doing things that seniors in high school do, spoke like 12 year olds. Specifically, with everything they said being very matter-of-fact, blunt, and straight forward. Teenagers talk with so much more subtext, underhanded remarks (both positive and negative), and with tone as opposed to just the actual words they use.
This lack of subtlety was also apparent with side characters' remarks about homosexuality. I grew up in a suburban town with about half of the people there being accepting and the other half not, and the remarks they made, whether affirming or ignorant, were always subtle and conveyed with subtext. Almost all of those statements that were made in the book were too overt to really make sense.
On top of this, most of the remarks from random side characters were affirming, which made it feel as though the town that this story was taking place in was pretty accepting. This made the FMC’s fear of coming out and accepting herself feel contrived, despite it being valid and even relatable.
This book also didn’t really read like a romance. It was definitely more of a coming-of-age lit-fic/chick-lit book with a romance subplot. Because of this, I found that the FMC had better tension with the male love interest despite the fact that we are supposed to be rooting for the female love interest, mostly because more page time was given to the FMC with the male love interest. I think this could have been fixed if more time was spent showing the development and reconnection of the FMC/female love interest relationship instead of spending so much time on other subplots. However, those subplots were what made me enjoy the last part of the book more than the first part, so there’s that. What I am trying to say is that not enough time was dedicated to each subplot, and by overcommitting, this book underdelivered on all of them.
Thank you Tales & Teacups and Madison Rose for the ARC. These are my own thoughts.

What happens when your former best friend comes back from the dead?
Milla doesn't know how to cope with all the loss she experienced 3 years ago. Between her best friend moving away, her reputation being ruined, and her parents' divorce, it's been A LOT. The only thing Milla has to look forward to now is a study abroad program that will let her escape the mess that is Still Bay.
I'm all for a complicated family dynamic. It's emotionally gripping when there are unresolved issues that feel chaotic that eventually are worked through—or at least handled as best as the characters can in the moment. I hated what her dad did and completely understand why she's so overwhelmed with all those feelings at once. And those two phone calls towards the end of the book? I was in tears anticipating the news.
As far as the romance goes, Griffin falls kind of flat for me. I understand his motivation is muddled with his own issues, and I feel for him. However, between his being so presumptuous and only barely touching on the family drama, he ends up such a one-dimensional character. I needed more depth from him, and definitely needed him to start asking Milla what she wanted before going for it all the time.
Then, we have the very YA aspects of it that had me wishing they were just a little bit older. The dance, being such a big deal, felt like such a means to an end for plot points to happen. I would've loved something a little less contrived, perhaps.
Where this book really stood out was in Milla's exploration of her sexuality. The confusion, the fear of being found out before you're even sure yourself, and how tense it made every interaction was beautifully done. I loved that we had representation from people at different parts of their self-discovery journey so that young readers can see that it's all valid: it's so hard to figure out, but it's freeing when you can accept it. It made my heart so full seeing how supported Milla was through that journey. Olive, going through her own journey in the background, was also amazing to witness—I wish we had spent more time on this!
You, Me & Heather Summers by Madison Rose was such a captivating story filled with so much emotion, so if you enjoy a heartfelt YA that intertwines friendship, romance, and self-discovery, you might love this one, too.

As far as the romance goes, Griffin falls kind of flat for me. I understand his motivation is muddled with his own issues, and I feel for him. However, between his being so presumptuous and only barely touching on the family drama, he ends up such a one-dimensional character. I needed more depth from him, and definitely needed him to start asking Milla what she wanted before going for it all the time.
Then, we have the very YA aspects of it that had me wishing they were just a little bit older. The dance, being such a big deal, felt like such a means to an end for plot points to happen. I would've loved something a little less contrived, perhaps.
Where this book really stood out was in Milla's exploration of her sexuality. The confusion, the fear of being found out before you're even sure yourself, and how tense it made every interaction was beautifully done. I loved that we had representation from people at different parts of their self-discovery journey so that young readers can see that it's all valid: it's so hard to figure out, but it's freeing when you can accept it. It made my heart so full seeing how supported Milla was through that journey. Olive, going through her own journey in the background, was also amazing to witness—I wish we had spent more time on this!
You, Me & Heather Summers by Madison Rose was such a captivating story filled with so much emotion, so if you enjoy a heartfelt YA that intertwines friendship, romance, and self-discovery, you might love this one, too.
Thanks to Tales & Teacups PR for the ARC!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
BIG thank you to Tales and Teacups PR for the ARC opportunity! I devoured this book in 1 day (stayed up to finish it...haha)
You, Me and Heather Summers is messy in the best way—emotional, honest, and full of heart. Madison Rose writes with such care and realness that it feels like she’s speaking directly to anyone who’s ever felt caught between identities.
This isn’t just a love triangle story. It dives into how differently men and women show up in relationships, the stories we tell ourselves (and believe), and how hard it can be to own who you are when the world keeps questioning it. And the ending? It’s not just satisfying—it’s healthy. Therapy, reflection, self-respect… it’s the kind of growth we don’t see enough in YA.
Madison doesn’t sugarcoat pain—she handles it with a lot of thought and honesty. Milla and Griffin’s relationship was messy and real, and I loved how it wrapped up in a way that felt mature and grounded. Olive was an absolute gem—everyone needs a friend like her.
And Heather… wow. Even with everything she was hiding, I couldn’t help but root for her and Milla. Their moments together were so full of joy and longing, it made my heart ache in the best way.
This book goes beyond romance. It touches on addiction, fear of being accepted, complicated family stuff, and the pressure of growing up. Watching Milla find her way back to herself was empowering, and the side stories added even more depth. It’s raw, relatable, and exactly the kind of queer representation we need more of.
If you’ve ever struggled to find yourself again after heartbreak or loss, this book will speak to you. It’s a must-read for fans of queer YA, and I truly hope Madison Rose continues writing in this universe. I’d love to see a sequel—or anything else she creates.

You, Me and Heather Summers - 3.5⭐️
Thank you so much to Tales and Teacups PR for giving me the opportunity to read an E-ARC of this book!
I had such a fun time with this one. It was super fast paced (I literally read 68% of it in one day!) and had me hooked from the start. It was packed full of complex family and friendship drama which was fun to read and at times, I couldn’t guess what was coming next! However, the twisty, dramatic moments didn’t take away from the heart at the centre of this story. It was a beautiful journey of self-discovery with some really important conversations around sexuality, especially bisexuality, and the impact of society on people’s choices. This raised interesting points on labels and people coming out on their own terms which I found sooo relatable as someone who came out as bisexual in my final year of high school!🌈
I really related to Milla and was so proud of the choices she made, particularly towards the end of the book. I also loved Olive and spent so much of the book just wishing Milla would open up to her🫶🏻
At one point, I thought there were so many different threads to the story that they couldn’t all be resolved by the end but I was actually really happy with how everything wrapped up! I don’t feel that anything was left unanswered and all of the different family, friendship and relationship threads were clearly all important to the author so I understand why they were all kept in🥰
This was really strong for a YA romance debut and I would be interested in reading more from Madison Rose🩷

“Heather Summers is supposed to be dead.”
That line had me hooked from the start, made me excited and I didn’t know what to expect from the book!
This book is a sweet YA bi romance that is completely different from anything I’ve read before, but I still enjoyed it. We follow Milla Daniels as she navigates her senior year in a new high school, her parent’s *still fresh* divorce, and her best friend turned enemy walking back into her life. With all the drama that comes with being a teenager in a small town, Milla also begins to struggle with her identity and sexuality, eventually coming to terms with you can like who you like.
The romance was sweet, with both the male and female interests and I really felt for Milla when she was stuck between her heart and being a good friend… Each time the romance seemed to come together, a problem popped up and our poor girl couldn’t catch a break. By the end, everything worked out well for the characters, but I did hope for an epilogue that gave us Heather and Milla or Milla in Spain, that would’ve been so fun!
Overall, really enjoyed it! Four stars from my shelf to yours!

I wanted to love this, but it didn’t quite click for me.
There were some good themes here—identity, family pressure, figuring yourself out—but the way they were handled felt a little too surface-level. I kept waiting for the story to really dig into something, and it just never got there for me.
The opening threw me off. It felt like I’d walked into the middle of an already ongoing story, and I spent a lot of time trying to catch up instead of getting pulled in. I didn’t mind the dynamic with Milla and Griffin at first, but when things started shifting to Heather, it felt like the connection was rushed and not fully earned. The queer rep had potential, but it kind of got buried under the straight relationship drama and just didn’t feel organic.
Also… why was everyone using full names in literally every conversation? It got old fast and kept pulling me out of the story.
Overall, not a bad book, just not one that worked for me. I think it’ll resonate more with readers who connect with the vibe early on, but I needed more depth and cohesion to stay hooked

3.5* rounded up :)
Pretending an ex-friend is actually dead? Honestly Milla, I get it.
You, me and Heather Summers is the perfect bi, love triangle YA summer read. I honestly wasn’t expecting this read to touch on so many important topics, but sometimes it felt a bit surface-level.
I did enjoy this book, but at times I think it was just a bit too unrealistically dramatic at times, which made it a bit harder for me to enjoy. Especially as I feel like the first half was quite slow, then suddenly lots of things seemed to happen.
I did love how it addressed queer guilt & shame, trying to understand yourself and how sometimes you’re not ready to share part of yourself with everyone. I was very emotional reading the last few chapters, I do think that maybe my issues were just because I’m not a young adult anymore, and that for younger people who are still navigating their sexuality this would be a brilliant read!

You, Me & Heather Summers, an ARC review
The book follows Millie, who is struggling to find her footing in high school following a video of her going viral in middle school. She has attempted and thought to have succeeded in rebranding herself. None of her friends know that she is harboring some secrets, including that she might be queer. Millie finds herself stuck in a love triangle with the sweet but suspicious at times Griffin and her ex best friend Heather as well as fighting with a long time bully.
I think my favorite part of this book was the discussions of guilt and shame. Millie, especially, struggles with coming out to others but also, she is fighting herself. Her parents split up a few years ago and they are both grappling with what that has meant for them and the shame that follows some of their actions.
I think the third act conflict had a really good build up that when the negative events happened, it felt natural and expected. I enjoyed the characters and the friendships and reading it felt like being a teenager again (yikes).
My only critique is I wish we either saw more of the ‘mean girl’ Rachel. We could have delved more into her background and why she is that way. Otherwise, it felt like she could’ve not even been there and the book would have still had the perfect amount of tension to build up the issues that unfold. But that’s a personal thought since I don’t enjoy the mean girl trope.
You should definitely check this out when it releases xx

This book was kindly gifted to me as an arc and I am beyond grateful! It is so well written, the plot is so engaging and it beautifully depicts the fear of coming out. This book I devoured, could not put it down! I truly recommend this book. It touches on some triggering topics such as alcoholism, divorce and being outed (please keep these in mind if you are to read it). This book honestly is the perfect mix between sad and a positive ending with taking pride in one’s self. This development throughout this book is everything! This book is messy and shows how in life we need to make mistakes in order to see what’s right. It also shows the complexities of finding a label for one’s identity and navigation relationships when you’re still figuring yourself out. And the wlw relationship is chefs kiss!! We need more books like these!

I was on the edge of my seat this entire book. There was so much suspense with the secrets and the twists and turns. The story and characters are written so beautifully. Everyone is so well written and complex. I thought the love triangle between Millie, Griffin, and Heather was just so entertaining. I loved the friendships and just the character interactions. They feel so real. I am so thankful to have been gifted a copy of this book and I highly recommend it. I would love to see a sequel or more books written in this universe, and just written by the author as a whole.

First of all massive thank you to the author for an ARC!!
This was such a cute read, and I think it will be so important for people who have struggled to define or understand their own sexuality. Milla struggled for so long to work out what was 'wrong' with her, to work out what her label is, and to be herself without being labelled as 'the bi girl' in such a small Conservative town. I was very lucky that I didn't have a struggle or confusion when it came to knowing I only liked girls, I can't imagine the mental toll it would have taken otherwise.
As for the rest of the book it was a nice read, I think I expected the tone to be less YA than it was, and at times I struggled with it, but that's my own fault for not realising it would lean to the younger YA range.

3.5 ⭐️ read! (Goodreads PLEASE add half ratings!!!) This book is a really well done YA queer romance novel that focuses on self-love and family love as much as romantic love. Really beautiful story. I liked it a lot, especially the characters. None of them were perfect but they were glaringly real which was for the better. The only things that took me out of the book a bit while reading were that I couldn’t quite figure out where the story was set besides it being set in 2025. They celebrate Thanksgiving which points to the US but some of the slang and vernacular were much more British/Australian. I also thought at the beginning that the book might be thriller with all of the secrets and the first sentence but regardless, a very well written read!

Review of ARC copy. This is a wonderful coming of age story about a girl who struggles with who she wants to be but with fear of how others will judge her. She just wants to be comfortable in her own skin which many people can relate with. Even people who aren’t struggling with being open with their sexuality. But this story also deals with struggles within a home that’s broken. There are secrets that come out that I didn’t see coming and you wouldn’t know from an outsiders view.
Overall very good story about a girl overcoming outsiders influence and learning to just be comfortable with who she is.

this was written so beautifully! i appreciate the representation of the queer community, and the struggles that come with trying to figure out your identity - been there and man was it rough! its an amazing protrayal of the inner demons that come with figuring out your thoughts on liking a certain gender, trying to please everyone, hiding who you are because youre afraid of others saying things or not supporting you, and being who you are. a strong message of love, community, being an ally, and knowing that those around you (friends/family) will support you and its okay to love who you want to love! thank you so much for the arc 💕

3.8/5
Opini que la trama de romance está bastante bien, me gusta que tampoco sea un super triángulo amoroso, que se vea claro a quién prefiere. Aunque yo habría añadido más momentos con Heather.
Cosas que no me gustaron:
1. Cuando la madre de va al hospital, me da igual que tengan cosas sin resolver. No entiendo por qué heather no tiene un papel importante en estar con ella, consolarla y acompañarla.
2. El drama con el padre no tiene sentido y es poco realista. Puso cuernos, no firma el papel de divorcio, lo oculta, tiene otra novia tres años después y de un momento a otro corta con ella para volver con su familia?
De resto, its alright

For a YA bi-romance, I think this book is good overall. It definitely leans toward the younger end of YA—themes aren't deeply developed, and the author doesn’t fully dive into the more complex topics that are introduced. The beginning felt a little confusing, almost like I’d been dropped into the middle of the story, but things smoothed out as it went on. Despite that, it’s a cute and heartfelt read, and I think it captures the emotions and confusion a lot of bi girls might experience while figuring things out. (Thank you for the ARC!)

DNF at Chapter 3—but don’t write it off just yet. This one's brimming with high school angst, complicated friendships, and the kind of secrets that will have teen readers flipping pages like they’re scrolling TikTok. If you’re 13–16 and love a dose of drama with your romance, this might be your jam.

I’m so grateful to have received an ARC in exchange for this review!
Overall, I thought this book was good! However, it took me a while to get into the story/connect to the characters. As someone who reads a lot of YA, this story felt like it was for a younger audience than most YA books I read (which isn’t a bad thing, I’m just not the target audience here). I did enjoy the bi representation, and I wish I was able to read this when I was younger!

I was very lucky to get an early copy of this.
I enjoyed this story, it was an easy read and I was hooked into the story.
I’m glad they didn’t actually define Milla’s sexuality and depicted how it can take some figuring out.
I must admit I didn’t want Milla to end up with Heather though, I couldn’t get past the fact that she outed her and then ditched her. It would have been nice to have an epilogue where Milla goes to Spain to get the freedom to explore her sexuality.

This was a great story of a teenage girl finding and accepting herself for who she is, while also navigating the other issues going on in her life.
I felt this was written beautifully and was so easy to read, and I was so happy for Milla when she finally accepted herself for who she was.
Everyone needs a friend like Olive.
The growth of all the characters was really well done and made this a great and enjoyable read.

Looking for YA romance with biawakening this is for. I enjoyed this story it’s about questioning one’s sexual orientation. We meet Milla, Heather, and Griffin. Milla is in her final year of high school and plans to move to Europe. Little did she expect to run into her ex-best friend. I like that we get to see the build-up relationship between Milla and Griffin and how it evolved to focus on Heather and her history with Milla.
