Things really picked up! Pretty nice. I guess my only gripe is that the book keeps insisting that Leah and Nick are Simon's best friends since babyhood but they're barely in the story, let alone have an effect. My favorite aspect is the emails between Simon and "Blue." They really sell the romance. It's a satisfying love story.

You telling me that Leah dresses up as Tohru Honda from Fruits Basket for Halloween ... and we *didn't* get that in the movie? I guess the book's better after all.

When I first considered what to read for Pride Month, this immediately leaped to mind. Why not? I loved the movie.
I was not prepared for ... shudder ... a YA novel told in first-person. As someone who used to exclusively tell stories like that, I can confirm that this can be a major crutch and hard to pull off right (but not impossible - see Hunger Games). So far ... it's grating. Ack.
