What If It's Us by Becky Albertalli, Adam Silvera
4.0

I downloaded a few breezy YA books for my recent Denver trip, knowing the conference would be info overload and I would need a brain break. This one was delightful — the best meet-cute moment in a lost office, the most romantic gestures involving missed connections and posters in NYC and coffee shops, great family and friend supporting characters, and at the heart, a story of two teenage guys and their love. I am not here to debate your stance on this, but simply to tell you that diverse and inclusive love stories (especially for a YA audience) are wonderful and necessary and lovely, and I am 100% here for it.
