Which, being a big girl, pisses her off as if she can’t enjoy and love her size. Being that Leah probably has the least bit of money, when they all go out to eat after school she just gets a coke and a comment is made about her being on a diet. That isn’t the only awkward moment though. Like Taylor, one of the members of Nora and Leah’s band, being very Nick obsessed despite him being all over Abby and her reciprocating.

But it isn’t just the far future but present which is sort of awkward. Thus really pushing to the forefront how challenging things are going to be for the dynamic. It’s senior year and naturally, there are conversations about what people are doing the following year. Chapter 2: When Things Begin To Get Awkward Though there are some awkward moments with Bram on the way, when it comes to Leah, there is nothing but open dialog. Two parents, she could have a cool older and younger sister, and as shown in Simon’s book and this one, Simon is a pretty communicative friend. But, at the same time, considering it wasn’t really pushed they were more than like non-blood related siblings, since she was so into Nick, can you blame me for getting weird about what seemed to be a change? I mean, even with it now being canon it makes me roll my eyes since it seems mad typical.īut, you have to take note, with Leah considering herself poor, and from a single parent household, why wouldn’t she want to marry into Simon’s family? They have everything her’s doesn’t. I wonder which came first, taking note how long it took to perhaps write this book, I guess I have to rescind ill feelings about Leah liking Simon.

I’m talking Nick as lead, Simon, Abby, and even Nora as a stage manager. As for Simon though, he has pretty much moved on for everyone’s sake.Įspecially since they are all, minus Leah who refused to audition, in Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat. Note: he is barely in the book, but his presence still irks most of Simon’s friends. Unfortunately, what does happen is Martin not having transferred to a different school, and still being fairly chummy with everyone. But, alas, he is gay so that isn’t going to happen. Alas, we learn this chapter she has long had a crush on Simon. Something which seemed like one of those, “We had to for it made the movie work” moments that bugged me. Remember Leah? Yeah, not featured highly in the previous book and despite Katherine Langford being her in the movie, the biggest thing to note was her out of place crush on Simon. Which may not be awkward for you but it is kind of awkward for her.Ĭhapter 1: A Year Later & Nothing Has Really Changed It has been roughly a year since the events of the first book and now Leah is in the spotlight.
