A New York Times bestseller!
âSmart and funnyâŚwarm and rewarding.â âBooklist (starred review)
âA compelling and quirky tale of love and negotiating early adulthood in New York City.â âSchool Library Journal
From the New York Times bestselling author of Emergency Contact, which Rainbow Rowell called âsmart and funny,â comes a âcaptivatingâ (The New York Times) romance about how social media influences relationships every day.
On paper, college dropout Pablo Rind doesnât have a whole lot going for him. His graveyard shift at a twenty-four-hour deli in Brooklyn is a struggle. Plus, heâs up to his eyeballs in credit card debt. Never mind the state of his student loans.
Pop juggernaut Leanna Smart has enough social media followers to populate whole continents. The brand is unstoppable. She graduated from child stardom to become an international icon, and her adult life is a queasy blur of private planes, step-and-repeats, aspirational hotel rooms, and strangers screaming for her just to notice them.
When Leanna and Pablo meet at 5:00 a.m. at the bodega in the dead of winter itâs absurd to think theyâd be A Thing. But as they discover who they are, who they want to be, and how to defy the deafening expectations of everyone else, Lee and Pab turn to each other. Which, of course, is when things get properly complicated.
