A romance that will have both the LGBTQ community and theater nerds alike buzzing with excitement, What If It’s Us is the perfect combination of what if and what now.

Arthur and Ben are almost total opposites. Ben thinks the universe needs to leave him alone while Arthur thinks it’s full of possibilities. When the two cross paths, it seems like everything is possible. But then they get separated. Once they reunite, their storybook romance has a bumpy path.

Reading about the missed connections will make you think about the people you’ve come in contact with through life and what could’ve been with them.

The book is very modern with references to Hamilton and Dear Evan Hansen. The joint authorship of Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli is a match made in heaven.

Final say: What if it’s perfect? ★★★★★
