If you want great BIPOC LGBTQIA+ representation, read this book or any of Leah Johnson's other books!

This book made me want to go to a music festival SO BAD. Leah Johnson's writing gives me all the feels. I liked You Should See Me In A Crown a bit more but that is probably because it spans a longer timeline. Loved the little cameo by one of my Favs from YSSMIAC.

An homage to live music with complex characters who make messy mistakes and are working on figuring it out. I like Leah Johnson’s writing style a lot and her books are a nice escape. She really captured the environment of being at a concert well and I felt transported. Can’t wait to read more of her work in the future!
