Thanks to Macmillan for the free advance copy of this book.
📚 I feel like my entire review of this book is just QUEER SCREAMING!!! Sapphic second chances, teen angst, and whole range of identities - lesbian, bi, Black, nonbinary, Jewish - and that's just the main cast.
📚 IT GOES LIKE THIS also totally nails the vibe and language of Tumblr fandom, which is so hard to do without sounding cringey.
📚 If you love found families and/or the idea that friendships can be as meaningful in your life as romantic relationships, get your hands on this book.
📚 I appreciated that while there is some discussion of various -phobias and -isms the band members encountered through their rise to fame, their immediate family and friends were completely loving and supportive of everything and everyone at all times.
