I LOVED this book. I picked it up initially because I was so intrigued by the concept. So, going into it, I was just expecting it to be about a romance. I wasn’t expecting the story to be so emotional and hard-hitting, while simultaneously being so hopeful and heartwarming. Even though it tackles a lot of serious topics, it’s still a very lighthearted and funny read, which I love.

I was rooting for #Zuben the whole way through, and I loved the relationship between all the band members. Ruben, Zach, Angel and Jon make a perfect team. The problems they face come from outside the band rather than within it, and it’s so nice that they have each other to lean on through everything they’re put through.
