What made this series great were its characters. Diversity was taken to another level but in a real, authentic way. I couldn’t stop watching. The coming-of-age story is something we’ve seen before, but the storytelling, dialogue, and unique character perspective made it fresh. Funny, romantic, and also dealing with real issues of loss, acceptance of identity, society pressure, loneliness, and the tendency to live off appearances. It’s a teen series, but as an adult, I loved it.
