I love Dahlia Adler’s work and Going Bicoastal is another excellent addition! I immediately loved the cover. In Going Bicoastal, Natalya must choose which parent she wants to spend the summer with- her dad in New York or her mom in LA. There are pros and cons to both, along with two special people that she’ll meet depending on her choice. In a queer YA version of Sliding Doors, Natalya discovers who she is and explores who she wants to be. 

Going Bicoastal was such a fun and clever read! I loved the bisexual/LGBTQIA+ rep and the cameos from Cool For the Summer. It was interesting to see what things stayed the same in both versions and what changed based on Natalya’s surroundings. I loved both Elly and Adam! Natalya has a great group of found family among her friends. I enjoyed seeing more about Shabbat dinners (they also made me very hungry!) and seeing how Natalya connected to Judaism. The ending was creative and I loved how all the threads came together. Going Bicoastal would be the perfect book for readers who enjoy Emma Lord and Sophie Gonzales. I can’t wait to see what Dahlia Adler writes next! 

Thank you to Dahlia Adler, Wednesday Books, and Netgalley for a free ARC in exchange for an honest review.
