What If It's Us by Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera
LOL
"For real." It comes out breathless. It's weird-- now I want to prove it. I want some gay ID card to whip out like a cop badge. Or I could demonstrate in other ways. God. I would happily demonstrate. p13
"All history should be taught through rap by Lin-Manuel Miranda." p230
I don't know what comes next. Because Broadway tells me one thing, but Reddit tells me something very different. And no one's advice sees to fit how I feel. p272
Love it
Here's my question: If a piece of trash never makes it into the trash can, can you even call it trash? Because let's just imagine-- and this is totally hypothetical-- let's say there's a crumpled shipping label on the floor. Is that trash?
What if it's a glass slipper? p18
Description
I don't know how people make friends in the summer. There are a million and a half people in Manhattan, but none of them make eye contact unless you already know them. And I don't know any of them, except the ones who work in this law office. p48
"Samantha mentioned roses are her favorite flower while we were watching Titanic," Dylan says, beaming, like it's a superhuman trait to remember something that was said less than twenty-four hours ago. p86
He laces our fingers together and shrugs. And I'm dead. I am actually dead. There's no other way to explain in. I'm sitting in fucking Herald Square, holding hands with the cutest boy I've ever met, and I'm dead. I'm the deadest zombie ghost vampire who ever died. And now my mouth isn't working. It's like I'm stunned into silence. That never happens. p216-217
But when I see Arthur studying every picture hanging on the wall, I remember that home isn't about how big the space is but how we fill it. p259
Relationships
My dad asked me if I had secret feelings for Dylan, which is seriously not the case. Dylan is just the best and I would drop-kick someone for him. But I just miss him whenever he's dating. And I don't only want to feel relevant when he's single. p129
Trauma
"I don't need my son seeing shit like this on the train when we're just trying to go home."
His problem is not a real problem. p241

Except it's not over, because Arthur and I have to carry this around. p242
