A popular band, a fandom, and people trying to figure out their place in this world. This was a good book to start off my 2023 reading - it has lots of positive representation and does include some heavy themes. However, reading a book about fandoms and a popular boy band just reminds me that there are many positives to being in a fandom. I could relate a bit about how Angel and Juliet met and that their love for a group brought them together. I love the Heartstopper series by Oseman, so if you enjoy them, give this novel a try! 💜
