This ! book !
It's been awhile since a book has so completely caught my attention; every time I put it down I wanted to pick it right back up again!! I think one of the biggest reasons why is because it centered around fandom. Alice Oseman does such a good job of walking the line between saying how great being a fan of a thing can be and also how damaging it can be.
Also the characters!!!!!!! All of them were lovely and complex and I wish I could be friends with all of them.
Definitely going to work my way through the rest of Alice's work because I've loved everything by her so far!

I have yet to be disappointed by Alice Oseman. Towards the end it was a little slow but I LOVED it overall

Really interesting commentary on fandoms and fan culture. I wish it was a little longer so that we got to see what became of everyone

I was worried about this book when I learned it was about the relationship between a large band and their fandom, but I think it was handled relatively well. I thought the characters were well thought out and developed. I do think the book felt a bit rushed at times, but it is a YA book so that’s partially expected

Ik vond dit boek heel anders dat wat ik tot nu toe van Alice Oseman heb gelezen, maar dit is dan ook de eerste die helemaal losstaat van de Heartstopper-verse. Ik vond m wel echt leuk, het las lekker en het waren leuke personages
