Didn't love this book and plot, taking advantage of students.. Multilple 1st person narratives was also complicated to read.

I cheated and looked at some reviews for this book the other day, and I see a lot of them hating on Gene. I understand, she's definitely a pain and she has a ton of growth to do, but I absolutely adore her. She's not a bad person. She's very driven and single-minded and not a stellar girlfriend, but overall she's a pretty good character. She's funny, adorable, and has a ton of compelling areas to learn from. I'd read a book about her.

Sometimes you find perfect books for yourself. When you read chaotically like me and don't read the backs of books before you read, they're even more random and satisfying to find. I picked this one up feeling like it might be a so-so read for me and so far it's extremely perfect. I absolutely adore the characters, and the silly situations they get into. The literary references, nerdy manga love, and charming hate banter are also delightful.

The_Book_Ninja I do the same! I try and avoid film trailers and book blurb. Just need to know the genre 1w
Kenyazero @The_Book_Ninja love it ❤️ I‘m also the same with film! 1w

I'm absolutely delighted by how often LGBTQIA+ books catch my eye. Queer stories are always my favorite. I don't usually read the backs of books, especially graphic novels, when I decide I'm going to read them. I read a bit chaotically and it usually works out well. Somehow, more often than not, the books that catch my eye end up being queer like this one, which I picked up because I liked the title and spine design.

Another down for #10BeforeTheEnd ! Gee, that only leaves 8. 🤦🏻‍♀️

I previously bailed on this but for some reason was really interested in trying the sequel, so gave it another go. I still found the narrator on the irritating/immature side, particularly her views on romance novels -- which I *love*, but don't over-idealize. But the love interest is super sweet and the scavenger hunt throughout Seattle is a lot of fun.

willaful My husband and I once did a “Wizard of the Pigeons“ tour of Seattle and I can see doing that again with this book. (Though not everything will still be there, of course. 🙁 ) 1w
ChaoticMissAdventures ✅ way to get through it! Hopefully this will kick off better reading. 1w
