When I heard about this book on YouTube, it sounded like everything I could have wanted. Sadly, it didn't pan out that way. I still enjoyed the story, but something didn't click with me and I'm not sure what. I will be picking up more from Miel Moreland however This is an endearing, heartfelt story about four queer teens who were once part of a famous band that had broken up, with two of the members also going through a personal breakup. When a storm ravages their hometown, they come back together for a reunion benefit concert and must navigate old hurts, new loyalties, and the messiness of repairing and weaving new relationships. The story is a love letter to pop music, fandoms, and queer friendships and relationships. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

After all, they've been though a lot together, including the astronomical rise of Moonlight Overthrow, the world-famous queer pop band they formed in middle school. But after a sudden falling out leads to the dissolution of the teens' band, their friendship, and Eva and Celeste's starry-eyed romance, nothing is the same"-- Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |

I would have preferred it if the protagonists had all been a little bit older. Sure the fallout after basically being child stars makes sense, especially in the way that it happened, but with how little time passes between the seperation and the "reunion" they were very much still teenagers and it kinda felt hard to believe what they'd all achieved and that they'd all just regretted leaving this quickly? And Eva and Celeste having first been together at 16 and then basically not moving forward from those emotions or giving me any reason to like their relationship at the moment (not the flashbacks) kind of made it hard to see why they would get back together this easily just based on the feelings of 16 year olds.
I was also very much over the self sacrificial tendencies of Steph. There's trying to be there for other people when they need you and there's hovering over people who are now the same age you were when you had already left home for quite some time. Honestly if I'd be their mum i'd be incredibly insulted over how incompetent Steph evidently thinks the mum is at being a mum even though Steph seems to love their mum and all she's done?
I also wasn't too big on the inclusion of tumblr in this. My experiences with Tumblr have been very different and if a "random" fan made a public post about leaving the fandom, no matter how popular they were in the fandom, everyone would just be confused because people on Tumblr change active fandoms all the time. With zero warnings. And no blog deletions. So if anything this post alone is incredibly suspicious if Eva doesn't want to be found out. ( )
