Unrealistic in what way? I was around MC's age when I realized I was gay. It's being told in past tense too, when I look back on my life I can pinpoint crushes I had on girls going back to elementary school but MC isn't looking back and realizing she had feelings for Ava? Happening right when she came back to town would make sense to me since MC could have repressed/conflicting feelings upon reuniting with Ava and be jealous that she's become closer friends Lauren or that she's dating Mason.

If this were supposed to be a book about a girl exploring her sexuality it should be a prominent theme, but 16 chapters in and we're getting nothing. There are no hints MC is or can be anything but straight. At this point I sincerely doubt that's what the book is supposed to be about or that it's going to happen in any meanginful way, it's just just another forced straight/bi book with a late addition female LI lol. The warning was probably slapped on so those of us who only romance female LIs wouldn't bail once we realized there wouldn't be any until like chapter 40.

IMO the only way this could still be an "exploring sexuality" book is if they let us romance Ava before chapter 20 and make MC canonically attracted to her the same way she is with Mason and Noah. Otherwise it's kinda BS to plaster a warning saying the book deals with sexual orientation but not have any of that happen until halfay or most of the way through... like every other genderlocked book with forced male attraction and sidelined female LIs 🤷‍♀️
