Not Your Sidekick reminded me what I love about reading YA.
This book is damn revolutionary on it own. We have a Vietnamese-Chinese-American bisexual main protagonist named Jess. Her identity is part of the story, but it's not driving point of the plot. It is a breakthrough for LGBTQ+ genre who have heightened focus on coming out and other relevant issues the community faces.
It's lifting and needed to have a story that doesn't tackle the norm, where a bisexual character have a strong supportive system. Not Your Sidekick is a refreshing start for that, specifically for those who are looking for something new or for those who are not particularly verse with this genre.
What I really love about this book is it's fun! It's not trying to be
