This was sweeeeet. I adored both characters and their connection for one another. It was a really fast relationship build up, but with the premise of the story being a night at a concert, this made sense.

I found this story to be written really well. The story flowed without any clumsy fumbling over odd sentence structure or anything. I'm typically not a huge contemporary reader, but the story and characters were enough to keep me fully engaged and enjoying myself. I also really loved the addition of difficult family dynamics and finding oneself.

good vibes, cute romance! a quick but worth it read. would definitely recommend. 5 stars. tysm for the arc.

I would just like to start my review by thanking Talia Tucker and Kokila Books for providing me with a NetGalley link to read this ARC!

I have to say I am very pleasantly surprised with how much I enjoyed this book! Young Adult fiction and Romance are both genres I do not gravitate towards, but I found myself loving absolutely every page. It is such a quick read, and it is not lacking in humour, fun and adventure in any aspect.

Light spoilers ahead of this point (I will try and keep them as vague as I can).

The writing is absolutely incredible, and I very quickly fell in love with both of our main characters, even quicker than they fell in love with each other. They are both very distinct voices, and it was so fun following them both through this story. The inclusion of astrology was also particularly interesting to me, as someone who does not know much about it. It was such a unique character trait for Dakarai in my opinion, and I love how it was worked through the whole story for him instead of it being left as just a little fact we never revisit.

The humour in this book I would say is absolutely generational, but since it is Gen-Z humour specifically it was something I very much enjoyed. As someone who is of a very similar age to the main characters, I thought they were very realistic to how myself and many other people my age would act in real life. The way the spoke and communicated was also something I found very realistic, and I loved how healthy the friendships and relationships were.

The dynamic between Dakarai and Elias was just everything to me, and following them along the scavenger hunt. It was such a fun way to explore both of the characters!

Of course, I cannot write this review without talking about how I love the diversity. As someone who is bisexual, I have been yearning for some good bisexual representation in books, and this has absolutely ticked all the boxes for me.

Overall, this was just a perfect, fun romance to read and I cannot wait to get my hands on a physical copy, and to read even more of Talia Tucker's work! I would highly recommend reading it once it's out, I genuinely cannot stress enough how heartwarming it was.

Thank you once again for allowing me to read this in advance of the release.

This was a cute light YA read that I finished in two days. The whole book is centered around Kai and Elias and a concert which I enjoyed because I love me a good concert. For this is be a romance it was extremely fast paced but again it’s around a night out at a concert so the pace makes sense. This book made me smile the entire time while reading!

I loved this one so much and highly recommend it!

Whether you're a lonely hopeless romantic like Kai or a misunderstood troublemaker with a knack for self-sacrificing like Elias, these two boys will have your entire heart faster than they can steal each other's. This book single-handedly healed my inner troubled teen who thought their love was too big for others to hold.

i absolutely LOVED this book. dakarai and elias i will ride at dawn for yall!! this was so so so cute and i loved how everything was based around the concert. one of the best little romances ive read. also a BIG thank you to the sweet author who gave me an arc read because she knew i wanted to read it to bad! make sure to read this when it goes on sale june 10th!

Love the relationship between both MMC and how the books navigated difficult family dynamics and how one finds themselves. Will definitely read more by this author.
