Review: Grace and the Fever by Zan Romanoff

Hello everyone!
A couple of days ago, I finished reading Grace and the Fever by Zan Romanoff. It's about a girl named Grace who loves a boy band called Fever Dream. She has a fan account on Tumblr where she goes by Gigi. She meets Jes on accident one night who is one of the members of the band. The rest of the book follows her journey getting to know the band and what it's really like to be a celebrity.

Firstly, I'd just like to say, this book was amazing! This is the first book I've ever read about a boy band, and I don't know why I've never picked one up before. I love boy bands! This book was so relatable as to what it feels like to be a fan. I'm pretty sure that not all celebrities are that nice to fans though. 

I didn't really care for Grace's friends, except for Katie which is her online friend. Katie stuck with her thick through thin no matter Grace's mistakes, and there were a couple. Her real friends pretty much took her for granted until the very end. I wish more of the characters had more depth though or even more of a backstory.

I really loved the relationship Grace and Jes formed. He became very open with her and a really good friend. I also appreciated the struggle Grace faced with hanging with the band because of their privacy. 

I really only have two complaints about this book. 1) Grace is 18 and was grounded by her mother. By then you'd be in charge of your own life and could decide what is good or not good for you. 2) I wish it was told in first person. Third person was great, but I wanted to get more of Grace's thoughts about what she was experiencing. Other than that, the book was fantastic!

Overall, I rated this book 4.5/5 stars. It was that amazing! If you love boy bands, I highly recommend this book. It was so nice to read about a character I could somewhat relate to, besides the whole meeting a celebrity thing. 

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great day.
