Nick & Norah's Infinite Playlist
by Rachel Cohn, David Levithan
This is a good book for a long night. Sometimes you just want to be Comforted. This book Comforts. I would evaluate the authenticity of Cohn and Levithan’s rendering of a punk-teen existence, but I am anciently old and out of touch; I haven’t been a punk-rock teen in almost a decade. I will say that while these details were not spot on—at least in terms of aligning with my experience—it didn’t detract anything. There’s a lot here to like if you want to see some acerbic teens get sappy. I want to meet some straight-identified youth who play queercore and catch burlesque shows of drag-queen nuns dancing to “Climb Every Mountain.” Oh, and if anyone wants to write a collaborative YA novel—about queer-identified riot girls in Northern California, perhaps—give me a holler.
