Dear Wendy by Ann Zhao
3.75
Dear Wendy is the queer platonic love story we’ve been waiting for. It’s contemporary, fun, cosy and a hug / love letter to aroace people.
It showcases so well the different nuances of aspec identities, how two people with the same identity can feel and want different things, all while finding comfort in all their similarities.
On a personal level, I would have liked a lit less online banter and (even more) real-life bonding between Jo and Sophie. I felt like it needed more time to be developed to truly understand the idea of them heading towards "a queer platonic love story".
