I thought this was a fun (though predictable) read for YA fans. Sunny considers he and his two friends to be nerds. They enjoy LARPing and have a YouTube series about their DIY LARP projects. Sunny meets Cirrus, the daughter of his parent’s friends, and is immediately attracted to her. Through some confusion during their initial meeting, he ends up pretending to be in a band and you can guess where the rest of the story goes.

Overall I thought it was a cute read. I enjoyed the “coming of age” aspects of Sunny’s character and the theme of being true to yourself. Sunny’s friends Milo and Jamal were so adorable and were the best friends anyone could ask for. I was kind of annoyed at times with Sunny’s self-centered nature around his friends and family, but I still enjoyed seeing his character grow. This was somewhere between 3 and 4 stars for me. I enjoyed the book as a whole but there were certain parts that seemed to drag for me. If you’re a fan of YA I would definitely recommend checking this one out!
