Art Boss by Kayla Cagan
5.0
🎨 LOVED IT | @chroniclebooks #partner
.
I adored @kayla_cagan_writer ‘s last book (Piper Perish) and was ecstatic to hear there would be a sequel......and oh my goodness did this live up to and exceed my expectations 😍 While the first book was solidly a high school YA story, this one definitely moves past that as Piper is now graduated and living in NYC, but it remains 100% YA friendly, almost innocent compared to so much gritty YA now.
.
A love letter to the city. A love letter to art of all kinds. An ode to Andy Warhol. A feminist coming of age story that will steal the heart of anyone hoping to break out on their own. Deeper than I expected but just as sweet and rambling as I hoped it would be, this novel in journal entries and sketches is a WINNER. Love, love, LOVE.
.
NOTE: while this is a sequel, I do think you can read it as a stand-alone given the different setting and so many new characters.

Thanks a million to @chroniclebooks for this free review copy ❤️
