This story has an LGBTQ+ main character, and contains trigger words/situations. I want to add this is was the first EVER audiobook i had finished and was pretty happy about it. I have no lie, spent the last six hours binge listening.
Penelope discribes life as a high school student in her town. A LGBTQ+ teen, in a catholic private school. The friends she has, family drama, and the girl she falls in love with.
I thought it was messed up how her friend colby acts about things from the get go. Using her to get girls for him because he thinks she is more approachable being a girl. I love the friendship that turns into a relationship with blake. I loved how compassionate and loyal she was to olivia as she dealt with thw pregnancy. I dont agree or condone to abortion but it is something that happens and this covered it lightly enough to not encourage or defend and still brought some light to the fact that it does happen and what social and personal feelings might lead one to that decision.
Johnny aka jwow is an awesome big brother and is so understanding and supportive of Pen. In all aspects that a big brother should be. So much so i was almost envious.
I really liked the way that olivia stuck her revenge in a way that didnt bring extra drama, that didnt send a bad message (even though their one plan wasnt really vicious anyways).
And it was all in all a well rounded story.
I dont really have much more to say about it at the moment but it was definitely a decent read.
Thanks for reading.
