Re-read 3/21/18: I really love you, Simon.

Original Review: AMAZING. I have no words except: "go read this, right now!!!".

Okay, I have a few more words than that, but most of the time when I try to articulate my feelings on this book it becomes incoherent babble that mainly consists of the most positive and wholesome adjectives I can think of.
Mainly I just want to say that I am so similar to Simon it's almost scary and I want to thank Becky Albertalli for making such a wonderful relatable character.
Also I think want to impress upon everyone that I READ THIS IN ONE DAY. ONE. For me, that is unprecedented. Like, this is the first, and currently only, time on record that I have read a full blown novel in under a day. So props for that, Simon!
I think what drove me to keep reading was the perfect blend of sickeningly adorable romance, a fun mystery (Blue's identity) which I had to know the answer to, and some heartfelt drama which I understood on a metaphysical level.

I love this book. I love "Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda". I Love. This. Book. I'm now making it my mission to get people to read this wonderful sugar-spun delight of a novel. You better go read it before I come to your house and make you. (Seriously, it's so fluffy but so good). Knock-knock, what's that? Oh it's me - at your door professing the gospel of "Simon Vs"! Now read it!

Okay, I'm off to shout my love for this book from the rooftops now.

Jamie is glad to help out behind the scenes at the Jordan Rossum campaign for state senate, but he's not crazy about going door to door and actually talking to people. Maya doesn't really want to canvass either, but her parents might be willing to buy her a car if she does. Thrown together in reluctant political activism, Jamie and Maya get more and more invested in the campaign -- and in each other -- as the weeks go by.

This was a cute YA romance, sweet but a little slow paced for me (maybe because I was listening to the audiobook). It switches between Jamie's and Maya's narration, so you get both sides of the story. YA romance fans should take a look, especially if you like a dash of politics with your romance.… (mer)

A joyous triumph of YA literature, with a cast of characters that leap off the page with life and wit. This is a delightful and much needed book! Simon will steal your heart and make you remember what it was like to be a teenager, and that love comes in many forms.
