Moon has been her sister’s unpaid and unrecognized photographer for Star’s rise to social media stardom. When she begins to be recognized for her talent, her sister can’t handle the competition.

My favorite book I've read so far this year, and in my top favorite books ever. I absolutely loved the writing style. I loved being inside this characters head - I've never felt so seen by a book before because i felt like the way Moon thinks and views the world is similar to how i do. The love story was wonderful too, a perfect amount of angst and i love a good enemies to lovers vibe. Such a beautiful book that i cannot recommend enough!

“Who knows what makes us fall in love with the universe. For me, it was fireweed. For Santiago, it was salt.”
Excellent. Absolutely excellent. Moon Fuentez, the woman that you are.
