"Seventeen-year-old Steven has a big problem... Whenever he feels intense emotions, weird things happen. Like when he kissed a boy for the first time, and the boy's head literally exploded."
This is everything I want from a gay YA story: interesting characters, mystery, humour, a romance I'm interested in! The interactions between Steven and Troy were really cute and endearing. Troy is just a really cute character in general. I saw this book going round on instagram, and after watching 'heartstopper' I'm in need of YA with queer representation.
Not to mention the concept of Steven's superpowers. I remember being a teen and feeling such strong emotions and this idea is such an amazing interpretation of the whirlwind of emotions and feelings and inability to control this as a teen.
This book is so British and that's just a style of writing i love - overall a great read.
