Cinderella meets Cyrano in this pitch-perfect YA rom-com that is a celebration of Black joy, first crushes, and putting your heart on the line for love.
Darren Johnson lives in his head. There, he can pine for his crush—total dream girl, Delia Dawson—in peace, away from the unsolicited opinions of his talkative family and showboat friends. When Delia announces a theme song contest for her popular podcast, Dillie D in the Place to Be, Darren’s friends—convinced he’ll never make a move—submit one of his secret side projects for consideration.
After the anonymous romantic verse catches Dillie’s ear, she sets out to uncover the mystery singer behind the track. Now Darren must decide: Is he ready to step out of the shadows and take the lead in his own life?

I'm not one for romances, but this was a fast-paced, fun and at times humorous read that I enjoyed throughout. The protagonists were engaging and has the overall feeling of encouraging others to follow their passions.
This was the cutest YA romance! It was so cool to see a teen boy being nervous and trying to find his voice. Being a teen is hard for everyone. Finding the right person is hard for everyone. Getting the courage to talk to your crush is hard. I am glad that this book shows that all of those things are hard and scary for boys too.
Cute, fluffy YA romance!
