Trigger Warning: Transphobic language
I really liked this book. I almost loved it but there were a few bits that were either inconsistent or abandoned.
I thought the opening was interesting, straight into the action. I loved the variety of characters. Tess was awesome, plus size with silver Doc Martens, dyed hair and extreme introversion she reminded me of myself, only my boots are metallic pink not silver.
The goldfish thing was a little strange and came out of nowhere and why didn't Tess write notes? Also the Twitter bullying started and then the whole plotline was almost completely dropped. I hated the transphobic language it incited and the implication that if Tess was trans then it was the worst thing.
I did like the story's resolution though, it seemed real and honest and genuine.
4/5 stars.
