This book is basically glorified One Direction fan fiction. Hayes Campbell is our male protagonist. He's a British boybander with curly hair, green eyes, wears black skinny jeans and boots, likes older women, posts artsy images on his Instagram and has a weird relationship with his bandmate whom his fans creepily ship him with. Ahem.

Maybe if you don't pay attention to celebrity gossip or the life and times of Harry Styles, you'll actually enjoy this book. The writing wasn't bad but the parallels between Hayes and Harry, August Moon and One Direction, were too distracting for me to actually enjoy the story.
