Only on the Weekends Book Review

“Only on the Weekends ” is a good book that you can read online or download to read it later. Before starting the reading or downloading, here is the summary of the book that you can read. Fifteen-year-old Mack is a hopeless romantic—likely a hazard of growing up on film sets thanks to his father’s job. Mack has had a crush on Karim for as long as he can remember and he can’t believe it when gorgeous, popular Karim seems into him too. But when Mack’s father takes on a new directing project in Scotland, Mack has to move away, and soon discovers how painful long-distance relationships can be. It’s awful to be so far away from Karim, and it’s made worse by the fact that Karim can be so hard to read. Then Mack meets actor Finlay on set, and the world turns upside down again. Fin seems fearless—and his confidence could just be infectious. Award-winning author Dean Atta crafts a beautifully nuanced and revelatory story in verse about the exquisite highs and lows of first love and self-discovery.

Brief Summary Only on the weekend by dean atta

I was very interested in the way that this book presents characters who experience different kinds of privileges and addresses how intersectionality complicates what looks like privilege. Mack’s dad has money from working in the film industry, but in different scenes Mack observes how no amount of money will stop white people from viewing him as “suspect” for his Blackness. This money also complicates his friendships, as Mack starts to worry his friends are using him, and the money cannot make up for the ways that Mack’s dad is often distant or away with work. And while Mack experiences financial privilege, he spends a lot of time considering the ways that K’s masculinity protects K in ways that Mack does not experience because Mack presents differently, likes to wear make up, etc. The narrative spends important time considering these nuances of character dynamics, which I really appreciated.
