smvolk 's review for:

If This Gets Out by Sophie Gonzales, Cale Dietrich
3.0

“At the crux of it, everyone wants the world to see them as they are. The truth isn’t the problem. The problem is that the world doesn’t always make the truth safe for us to share.”

If This Gets Out is a sweet and inclusive YA novel. Ruben and Zach are well written characters and their romance is charming. I liked the behind the scenes glimpse into the music industry and the interpersonal dynamics of the guys in the band. The pace, however, is very strange and the text felt really repetitive at times.
