Review of 'Frankly in Love' on 'Storygraph'

5 stars

I really really liked this, and I’m saying that first because I want to emphasize it. I devoured it. It was really good and I only have one little complaint! I’m kinda tired of the “gay-as-a-twist” trope. I felt like there wasn’t enough queer rep, and I absolutely predicted the twist but it would be nice if YA books could abandon gay as a twist and only having one queer character. We’re trying (well, some of us) to move toward a normal society that doesn’t treat everyone as straight until proven otherwise, right?
But aside from that, and it’s kind of an afterthought, at the end.... sidebar: why do people just suddenly kiss other people in this book with no hint of consent?
Aside from those two complaints, this is a really good book and people should read it. It made me miss Kim’s Convenience. 4.5 stars
