I Was Born for This by Alice Oseman
3.5
medium-paced

I enjoyed I Was Born For This while I was reading it but it is unfortunately not a book I will keep thinking about. It was fun as long as it lasted.

The book kinda feels like a love letter to online friendships, fandom and boy bands. Moreover, there is no romance which is refreshing in Young Adult books. Big The Ark fan Angel finally meets her online friend Juliet as they wait for The Ark's concert later that week. But things aren't what they seem especially when Angel meets her idol Jimmy, a member of the band.

Great for fans of If This Gets Out.
