Publisher's Summary

"Sophie Gonzales and Cale Dietrich's If This Gets Out is an absolute showstopper! Equal parts edgy and adorable, this bright, joyful book has everything I look for in a queer YA romance.” (Phil Stamper, best-selling author of The Gravity of Us)

Eighteen-year-olds Ruben Montez and Zach Knight are two members of the boy-band Saturday, one of the biggest acts in America. Along with their bandmates, Angel Phan and Jon Braxton, the four are teen heartbreakers in front of the cameras and best friends backstage. But privately, cracks are starting to form: Their once-easy rapport is straining under the pressures of fame, and Ruben confides in Zach that he’s feeling smothered by management’s pressure to stay in the closet.

On a whirlwind tour through Europe, with both an unrelenting schedule and minimal supervision, Ruben and Zach come to rely on each other more and more, and their already-close friendship evolves into a romance. But when they decide they’re ready to tell their fans and live freely, Zach and Ruben start to truly realize that they will never have the support of their management. How can they hold tight to each other when the whole world seems to want to come between them?

Sugary sweet with real topics

The book has a nice storyline and could really be based on someone’s first relationship. There are a couple of real topics discussed like how LGBT people are marginalized for success over straight norms, and the consequences of coming out as a public figure.

Slow Romance, and true Friendship

Such a good book, was truly amazing to listen to. Made me feel so many emotions that I have related to, from coming out, and figuring out my own identity. To simply the different parental dynamics and diverse opinions of each story arc. 10/10 would recommend reading/ listening to this. Especially if you are fans of Red, White and Royal blue. Or Love Simon

Great book

This was a great book! Truly enjoyed that journey and seeing the boys personalities develop. Hopefully there will be another book peeking into their future.

A Fun, Fan-Fic-esque Tour de Force!

This story provides a great glimpse into the lives of a group of teen pop stars, and how they may struggle to be themselves under the pressures of management, branding, and money-making and stardom.

The characters are fun, and for the most part, relatable. While I do like Ramon De Ocampo as a narrator, I felt like this audiobook could have benefited from either having two separate narrators, or selecting someone else with more vocal range. A lot of De Ocampo’s voices sounded the same, and I was often confused with who was speaking.

Overall, I enjoyed it! It felt like I was on tour with these boys. Is it a little angsty at times? Sure. A little idyllic in others? Absolutely. But sometimes we need that in our crazy world.

A Boy Band Story with a Different POV

I really enjoyed this book. I know some people have issues with RdO’s narration and I can agree that it doesn’t always match age-wise but I still think he’s a great narrator. This was similar to “Darkhearts” but tackled different band and relationship issues. It was maybe a smudge repetitive but not enough to color my enjoyment of the story.

Delightful friends to lovers

Things I liked:
- Friends to lovers, they're adorable
- a bisexual MC
- Bi awakening, my favorite

Things I disliked:
- Boys being stupid (willfully misunderstanding each other, pushing each other away, straight up being cruel). A little of that goes a long way, and it felt like there was a lot of it.

The narrator was very good.

Worth a Listen

Decent story and good VO performance overall. Some of the characters are extremely aggravating and can be hard to listen to. I love this VO performer in other books, and he’s good in this one too, but it’s hard to distinguish the difference between the two main characters at times.
