I grew up in the 90s with Backstreet Boys, 98 degrees and Nsync. Justin Timberlake would have been my pick but I am def a girl fan of all the 90s chicks and love Jessica Simpson too. This book is boys band but LGBTQ and I am here for it!

The cover is super fun and I love the colors and the energy of the singers on stage. I don't read a lot of famous teen band books that are famous so this was a different YA read that had teens on a strict schedule making them present themselves as model citizens to the public. I love that the love situation in the book is a boy from the opening band and it makes you wonder where are the parents but whatevs teens will be teens.

The book taking place in Canada was also a fun aspect of the story since I have never been and love reading stories of places I haven't visited before. Def recommend this YA read 10 out of ten! The boys are all rock stars for sure<3<3<3

A warm and gentle love story
FARM TO FABRE is a gentle love story between two asexual people during a time when the world was in crisis. Andie and Doc had a moment under the apple trees before Doc fled. Andie carried on as usual as Doc travelled the world, trying to understand what happened and find his missing words.

I loved the pacing of this story. It continually moves you forward, without the frantic scenes that sometimes happen. Andie is a wonderful character who doesn't hold grudges, accepts people for who they are, and tries to make the best of any situation. This is completely character-driven, with Andie, Doc, and Rupert being the main ones we interact with. The other characters are seen through zoom, email, or mentioned in passing.

A brilliant standalone story that mentions covid but doesn't allow it to take centre stage. Absolutely recommended by me.
