Beschreibung

In Miel Moreland's heartfelt young adult debut, It Goes Like This, four queer teens realize that sometimes you have to risk hitting repeat on heartbreak.

Eva, Celeste, Gina, and Steph used to think their friendship was unbreakable. 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, never expecting to headline anything bigger than the county fair.

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. Gina and Celeste step further into the spotlight, Steph disappears completely, and Eva, heartbroken, takes refuge as a songwriter and secret online fangirl...of her own band. That is, until a storm devastates their hometown, bringing the four ex-best-friends back together. As they prepare for one last show, they'll discover whether growing up always means growing apart.

"It Goes Like This was everything my music nerd heart needed AND wanted. Lyrical and heart-wrenching...beautiful representation, sweetest longing and the pop-star romance of my dreams; Swifties will swoon happily with this story tattooed on their hearts." ―Erin Hahn, author of You'd Be Mine and More Than Maybe

It Goes Like This is a book about a queer teen pop band that reunites two years after their break-up to play a benefit concert after a natural disaster hits their home town. These four teens, who have had barely any contact since they split up, now have to navigate rehearsals and living together for a week. Reading the story from each band member's perspective makes it easy to root for all the characters individually as you get to know their hopes, regrets and reasons for quitting the band. However, almost all flashbacks show the break-up and the time after it, and there are barely any glimpses about what their friendship was like before. The reader is only told that they had an amazing friendship, but isn't shown this, which made it hard to root for them as a friend group or as a band. Overall, Miel Moreland has written very relatable characters and a beautiful story about friendship. It Goes Like This is an enjoyable and fun queer summer read.
