Underhill once again pens a delightful queer romcom. Arden is moving from LA to Michigan and isn’t happy about it at all. He’s used to being invisible as a trans person, and that’s not going to be possible in his new home. Meanwhile Gabe is moving from Illinois to Pasadena and is ecstatic to finally have some queer friends and where he won’t stand out as the only queer, let alone trans, person. As both boys are moving cross-country, they spend one perfect evening together at a hotel in Nebraska. They leave without exchanging information and immediately regret it. What follows is their journey to fit into their new lives, as well as trying to find each other when all they have are their first names and their favorite band. Another five-star read from this author cements him on my “always read” list!
