Rise to the Sun
by Leah Johnson
4.5
CW: (provided by the author) loss of a parent, panic attacks, gun violence, and nonconsensual image sharing. As well as talk of mass shootings, anxiety depiction, asthma attacks, online bullying and harassment, ptsd depiction, many feelings of abandonment.
This was so. dang. good. While I loved it, I think [b:You Should See Me in a Crown|50160619|You Should See Me in a Crown|Leah Johnson|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1568912283l/50160619._SX50_SY75_.jpg|69288604] is still my absolute favorite book by Leah. That being said, I think this will still have a very special place in my heart as it reminds me so much of my best friend with her love of music, especially live music and concerts like Toni and Olivia, to Olivia's feeling of being too much for everyone and being only good at ruining relationships. My copy of the book is going straight into her hands the moment I see her again.
As a whole, I don't really enjoy live music, from the crush of the crowds to the noise of people screaming during the performance. It's too loud, too much, and I have too much anxiety and sensitivity to noise. But, this book really has me romanticizing the energy a music festival has. I love all these characters and the adventure of the plot. Now, where is the movie adaptation? The Hulu series?? I have a mighty need to see this on the screen.
This book just cemented auto-buy status for me.
