Reviews

…hilarious and an all-around enjoyable read... Highly recommended for hi-lo readers who loved Heartstopper.

★ starred review, School Library Journal

"...two charming leads readers can’t help but root for... An adorable romance with strong coming-of-age elements."

Kirkus Reviews

Stuck With You, part of the “Real Love” series, is a well-written and believable narrative that addresses the many struggles people who identify as LGBTQ+ may face. Although most of the story takes place within the confines of two seats on a train, Burgoine does a solid job of using that singular setting to introduce more complex issues including gender fluidity, not knowing what to do after high school graduation, navigating changing friendships and relationships, and the difficulties of dealing with shared custody.
