I adored this.
This was a brilliant, educational read. I feel like so many kids will love this. From the characters - how strong and stubborn Jamie is, to her openness about her sexuality, and her amazing athletic ability in footy.
The story itself was wonderfully done. I loved the diary entries to Jamie's teacher, and the way she was able to sort her feelings out - which is hard for anyone to do at any age, let's be real.
I adored this one just as much the second time around. It's so excellent seeing things in an Aussie setting, too. I adored this one just as much the second time around. It's so excellent seeing things in an Aussie setting, too. ...more

Rep: Amelia (MC) is cis, white, Jewish, and bisexual. There is also no on-page ADHD confirmation, but she gives big ADHD vibes. Side queer characters, side POC characters.
This was a lot of fun! I didn't read the blub before starting this one, so it was a surprise to me what the plot was.
Amelia is a chaotic little bunny. She is hilarious and witty. I adored her friendship group, and how everyone was down to go on a last minute road trip so she could meet a YouTuber she loves.
(view spoiler)[I also lowkey love that Walter is Tessa's cousin, and that we got to see Tessa and Imogen again, too. I love them so much. And I adore that Amelia befriends Walter - that was so fucking cute omg. I just adored that whole plot point. (hide spoiler)]
Also, I am 99.9% sure that my nemesis, Gretchen, from Imogen's book, appeared in twitter convos. I hope she steps barefoot on a lego. ...more

I fucking loved this. This was amazing from start to finish.
I love Ollie and Lara as characters, both separately, and together. And I adored watching their relationship develop throughout the book.
I love the couple of added chapters here and there that had points of view from other Ribbonwood residents as well.
Words are hard, but I fuckng loved this one....more
