This book. This book was everything! This had two of my favorites: boy bands & gay romance.

I have been a fan of boy bands more than half my life. I never read fan fiction and even in more recent times, I never was on board with ships of different members or fed into any conspiracies. I put those preconceived notions out of my brain (I am a firm non believer of Larry - Iykyk) while reading this.

This book is about the most popular boy band in the world, Saturday. They met as kids at camp & the rest is history. As oppose to the traditional 5 member boy band, this one is 4 members who each have been branded their own persona. We learn that the persona the public sees, does not necessarily match who they are privately.

Ruben, is gay (forced to keep it private) who has been somewhat of a prodigy which also proves to be extra pressure on him.

Jon, the manager’s son who tries to do right by not only his father, but by the band and also by his religion.

Angel, the wild child of the four. He keeps everyone on their toes & was apart of the climax part of the book where things shift.

Lastly, Zach, always identified as straight but could not deny his feelings for Ruben. Zach is a people pleaser who will often put others wants before himself.

The authors paint a picture of what it is like to be in a boy band - the ups and downs. We see what is in the surface but don’t know the layers behind the scene. And knowing what I know about boy bands and management, this is an accurate portrayal.

I do not want to give much away but the romance. Oh the romance in this hits ya right in the feels. We get to see the complicated feelings of coming out and realizing who you are. Also I love the pure friendship between the four men & their trust with one another.
