If This Gets Out by Sophie Gonzales, Cale Dietrich
5.0

Thank you to NetGalley and Wednesday Books for making this available to read early!

Honestly, they had me at “boyband romance”. and I was not disappointed.

The characters were real and flawed and relatable. I loved all the boys for different reasons, and they all annoyed the hell out of me for different different reasons, as teenage boys are wont to do.

They did a great job balancing the romance and the hard stuff, and boy do they face some hard stuff. The adults in this book are really not great people, man. These kids deserve better, haha

Overall this was a hell of a lot of fun to read, and seeing Ruben and Zach overcome made me SUPER emotional many times.

Definitely one I’ll read again and again.
