Imogen, Obviously
Imogen, Obviously | Becky Albertalli
14 posts | 14 read | 9 to read
The sensational new novel from Becky Albertalli, best-selling author of Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda. Imogen may be hopelessly heterosexual, but she's got the World's Greatest Ally title locked down. And when she visits her best friend, Lili, at college who is newly-out, newly-graduated, and newly thriving, with a cool new squad of queer college friends, no one knows that Imogen's a raging hetero - not even Lili's best friend, Tessa. Of course, the more time Imogen spends with chaotic, freckle-faced Tessa, the more she starts to wonder if her truth was ever all that straight to begin with... With an irresistible cast of characters, hugely funny and empathetic writing, and all of Becky Albertalli's trademark warmth and wit, Imogen, Obviously beautifully explores the nuances of sexuality, identity, and friendship - perfect for fans of Alice Oseman and Adam Silvera.

This one made me laugh and cry and I loved every minute of it! When Imogen goes to visit her newly out bestie, Lili, in college, she finds out that Lili‘s told all her new college friends a little white lie. That Imogen and Lili are ex‘s turned BFFs… So she pretends to be bi to support Lili. But as she gets to know Lili‘s newest bestie, Tessa, she starts to suspect that being bi might not be such a lie. Because she‘s falling for her.

Overall pretty good, sweet and cute. I loved reading this as I watched Imogen slowly fall for Tessa without realizing it because she believed she was straight for so long.

Read in a day so of course it is a pick!
This is a sweet YA coming of age - wrestling with labels book. Imogen is the straight Ally friend, but maybe she is not?
I had a bit of trouble getting into the YA language the first 50 pages but once I got the rhythm it was a quick read that kept my interest.

Mehso-so

⭐️⭐️ Could be helpful and insightful for a younger person. It really goes all-in on Gen Z, so much of the relatability flew out the window for this Elder Millennial. This riff on Albertalli‘s real-life experience has thoughtful moments, but the writing /dialogue / stereotyping became exhausting and repetitive. And the term “discourse” is obnoxious and overused. I‘ve enjoyed some of her other queer YA novels, but this wasn‘t for me.

Scochrane26 Thanks for the review, I was wondering if it was good. I usually like her books. 10mo
britt_brooke @Scochrane26 I usually do, too. If you read this, I‘d love to hear what you think! 10mo

The way I squealed for five minutes when I finished this one!! Love how this book tackled the "who gets to be queer enough" discourse while also being a beautiful romance and a fun friendship story. Becky Albertalli has the range! #yalit #yaromance #book100of2023
