Book Synopsis
Hayley Kiyoko's instant #1 New York Times bestselling debut, a coming-of-age romance based on her breakthrough hit song and viral video, GIRLS LIKE GIRLS
It's summertime and 17-year-old Coley has found herself alone, again. Forced to move to rural Oregon after just losing her mother, she is in no position to risk her already fragile heart. But when she meets Sonya, the attraction is immediate. Coley worries she isn't worthy of love. Up until now, everyone she's loved has left her. And Sonya's never been with a girl before. What if she's too afraid to show up for Coley? What if by opening her heart, Coley's risking it all? They both realize that when things are pushed down, and feelings are forced to shrivel away, Coley and Sonya will be the ones to shrink. It's not until they accept the love they fear and deserve most, that suddenly the song makes sense. Based on the billboard-charting smash hit song and viral music video GIRLS LIKE GIRLS, Hayley Kiyoko's debut novel is about embracing your truth and realizing we are all worthy of being loved back.Review Quotes

A very emotional book about coming-of-age love learning about yourself, how to deal with grief, and being an outsider. I remember watching the music video that inspired this book back in 2015 and the positive impact it had on the LGBTQ+ community. This book is no different, Hayley does an amazing job portraying the nervousness and the confusing parts of being in love with someone that people view as wrong.

This book was one of the most heartfelt books I’ve read in a while. Hayley brings her whole soul to this book and shows you what it’s like to be a young teenager trying to figure out who you are, who you love, and how to love yourself. It walks us through all the emotions that a teenage member of the LGBTQ+ community experiences. This book made me laugh and cry, and I wish this was a book that I had when I was a young teenager.
