Edward Underhill, you've done it again. You've gone and made me fall for your characters again.
I loved Abby and Leo so much. Not just because they are band nerds like I am, but because they were trying so hard to figure themselves out and that's such a hard thing to do. I remember trying to figure out who I was, what I liked, crushes, telling your family... it was all so hard. I also think that New York was such a magical place for this to happen because as a small midwestern city friend you always imagine going to New York, Washington D.C., or other big cities and experiencing the magic you've only read about.
The 24 hour timeline really kept things moving and made me feel for the characters more than I was prepared for. It shows just how much one day can change things for you and set your course for a new direction. I cannot wait to see what else Underhill house in store for us in future books because this was yet again another LGBTQIA+ book that does wonders for the soul.
