If This Gets Out by Cale Dietrich, Sophie Gonzales

*******Thank You Netgalley for the ARC******
Okay, these boys need therapy and a hug. This was a boyband romance, so I kind of knew what to expect but not. Behind the scenes, what happens when a band gets off the stage, were as endearing as they were terrifying. I knew the music industry has a toxic environment, but for 18 yr olds, this was heartbreaking. They are popular overnight and they still are finding out who they are. Ruben's parents made me so angry. You'll see.
This book was long, which I think it didn't need to be. This could have worked out as a duology. The ending didn't feel complete because there was so much they were going through that wasn't mentioned. Those boys needed help and I would have loved to see that. Other than that, I did love them and their personalities. Angel, Zach, Jon, and Ruben shined on their own even if the POV was between Ruben/Zach. I would say an overall 3.5.
