The Music of What Happens is the perfect YA queer romance book - if it isn't on your reading list already, you should add it immediately. Konigsberg, the author, made the characters of Jordan and Max feel so real and I loved watching them develop throughout the story. Don't let the cutesy cover fool you - there are some heavy topics explored in this novel, including sexual assault and mental illness. This title would be a great read for any time of the year (not just Pride month!) and I cannot recommend it enough
Graphic: Mental illness, Sexual assault
Minor: Homophobia
