While this was a pretty quick read, there were several things that annoyed the heck out of me. First off, being a nerd and liking things like LARPing and playing D&D and other similar things is not the pariah that it used to be. The way that Sunny goes on and on about how uncool it is, while still doing it with his friends, Jamal and Milo, really irritated me. Also the way that he kept pushing his friends to go along with his lie about being in a band, The Immortals, to impress his new girlfriend, Cirrus and pushing his other commitments to the back (Livestreaming with Lady Lashblade, etc).

I did like how one of the other characters, a seemingly typical football jock, turned out to have hidden depths. It is too bad Cirrus did not have any depth to her character though, besides being the besotted girlfriend who thinks the world of her guy and nothing else.

This book did have cute moments and I did enjoy reading about the band practices. It kinda made me want to hear the Beauty is Truth song. And the making of Esmeralda's Veil, etc. If you want a light, quick read that has humor and not much depth and a neat, tidy not surprising at all end, then this is a good choice. I could definitely see this as a teen romcom movie.
