What If It's Us

Becky Albertalli...how haven't I posted about "Love, Simon", yet? That book changed so much for the YA and LGBT world? I'll do that one soon (in all fairness, I thought I had).

Okay, so "Love, Simon"'s Becky Albertalli and "They Both Die At The End's" Adam Silvera (which I haven't yet gotten to) wrote "What If It's Us." And what if... what if you don't read this book? Well, you'll regret it.

Author is in New York City for the summer. He dreams of cute, perfect dates at places like Times Square or Coney Island. When the summer ends, he'll finish off his senior year and continue to prepare for a future including great college. He's waiting for the Universe to take control and give him Broadway.

Ben is in summer school...with his ex. He's a New Yorker. He doesn't see much of a future for himself beyond high school, academically or financially that is. He bascially wants to tell the Universe to fuck-off.

Of course, they have a very very cute, meet-cute. Of course, things don't go well in the beginning. Of course, they fall in love anyway.

Go, buy this book. If not for their gay, gay love. Do it for their love of Hamilton.
