Quietly charming and affecting
I started this on a whim but after a couple of episodes I knew I would finished the series.
I felt like it was an accurate portrayal of teenage angst and struggling with your sexuality, particularly when everyone around you starts dating. It's often the people closest to you who are the hardest to tell. I know some criticism has been aimed at the second couple however I felt they were relevant to what the story was trying to achieve. This is a story about friendship, romance and coming out - sometimes all happening at once!
To me the character's action and motivations were relatable, even if they seem illogical at times. I suppose it also depends what you expecting as the viewer - I'm personally exited to see this new wave with the likes of Love for Love's Sake, and Love in the Big City - with longer run times, more realistic interpretation of LGBT experience and other themes explored.
