Book: And They Were Roommates by Page Powars
Reviewed by SimplySammie
Rating: 5/5
Attending Valentine Academy would be scary enough to any teen or pre-teen - weekly public class rankings, no technology, no social media, incredibly advanced course load - but when you’re isolated by gender and you’re a transgender student? YIKES ON BIKES. And when you don’t get that single room you counted on and your roommate is THE ONLY BOY YOU’VE EVER KISSED? AND HE BROKE YOUR HEART?!? Oh, and your roommate is the schools resident poet and Cyrano who helps to get love notes to the sister school? OH THE DELIGHTFUL ANGST!
A quaint story about love, friendship, and finding yourself in that incredibly difficult time in your life when everything seems too big and yet nothing seems important at the same time.
And they, were, in fact roommates!
