shoutout to becky albertalli. got absolutely lambasted for her very intelligent and heartfelt queer book because of its oversimplified, hollywood-ified, hit and miss but ultimately fine film adaptation (which never gets credit for being the victory that it was for queer rep because… people who couldn’t watch priscilla queen of the desert or paris is burning without passing out from shock decided it wasn’t ‘good enough’). she comes out. she gets lambasted some more. she writes a new romance book about comphet and allyship going hand in hand and breaking out of expectations, and manages to write a character you want to kill MORE than martin addison, to represent all of those swooning queers (but also acknowledge that they’re acting from a place of real trauma, even if their behaviour is unacceptable).

anyway give that woman her dues and if you’re in the mood for a delightful sapphic YA romance that’s also a massive middle finger to people who try to dictate the identities of others, go read imogen, obviously

"unlikable protagonist" and it's just a woman who's a regular human being with flaws
