Oh man, so perfect and hilarious and sweet! This was kind of what I wanted Seth Rudetsky's YA novel to be, but Seth Rudetsky's YA novel was nothing like this. Like, clearly written by a ~Broadway insider~ who totally nails the perspective of a clueless, theater-obsessed, exploring-his-sexuality kid from a shitty little town. Totally hilarious and relatable. Even to kids reading this who might not get that Nate is hilariously clueless will enjoy this and empathize with him, and it's just... really sweet. I'm definitely excited that a sequel is coming out.This is like a gentler, kinder version of [b:Dramarama 437590 Dramarama E. Lockhart http://d.gr-assets.com/books/1348800443s/437590.jpg 3085471] and I love them both, but I'd give this to tweens & teens who might not be ready for the REALNESS of Dramarama.
