'A beautiful tribute to every queer kid who's ever had to leave their home in order to find one' - Leah Johnson, bestselling author of 'You Should See Me in a Crown'
_______________
From the author of The Gravity of Us comes a heartfelt coming-of-age story about finding your chosen people. Perfect for fans of Becky Albertalli
Marty arrives in London with nothing but his oboe and some savings from his summer job, but he's excited to start his new life--where he's no longer the closeted, shy kid who slips under the radar and is free to explore his sexuality without his parents' disapproval.
From the outside, Marty's life looks like a perfect fantasy: in the span of a few weeks, he's made new friends, he's getting closer with his first ever boyfriend, and he's even traveling around Europe. But Marty knows he can't keep up the facade. He hasn't spoken to his parents since he arrived, he's tearing through his meager savings, his homesickness and anxiety are getting worse and worse, and he hasn't even come close to landing the job of his dreams. Will Marty be able to find a place that feels like home?

3.5 Der Schreibstil war gut und die Story auch, aber die meisten Charaktere und manchmal auch der Hauptcharaktere waren nichts für mich und haben mich auch an manchen Stellen ein bisschen genervt. Deswegen auch eher zwischen 3.5 und 4 Sternen, da das Buch an sich gut war und auch mal nicht einfach eine perfekte Liebesstory zeigt und sich eher auf die Entwicklung des Hauptcharakters konzentriert.
