I literally devoured this book in one day! One of the booksellers at my favorite bookstore recommended it, and it was available for immediate pick up the library, so I dug in right away this weekend - and I’m so glad I did! I love Deza: she’s smart, funny, and learning how to deal with sudden fame after working so hard at her craft - headlining a massive tour at the last minute when the scheduled headliner has to pull out. Aya de León has created a story set in music that weaves the themes of social justice, misogyny, and trauma together, and brings us these wonderful multi-faceted characters that you can’t help falling in love with.

One thing I really loved was how the storyline progresses: the reader realizes just how strong and powerful Deza is at the same time Deza does. I really enjoyed how the main storyline of the tour and the events surrounding it are interspersed with flashbacks to Deza’s childhood, it really helps to understand how Deza has become the person she is, and what she constantly has to fight against.

If you are looking for a book that is going to pull you in right away and that you won’t be able to put down until you reach the end - then this is one for you!
