Critically acclaimed and bestselling authors Becky Albertalli and Adam Silvera combine their talents in this smart, funny, heartfelt collaboration about two very different boys who cant decide if the universe is pushing them togetheror pulling them apart.
ARTHUR is only in New York for the summer, but if Broadway has taught him anything, its that the universe can deliver a showstopping romance when you least expect it.
BEN thinks the universe needs to mind its business. If the universe had his back, he wouldnt be on his way to the post office carrying a box of his ex-boyfriends things.
But when Arthur and Ben meet-cute at the post office, what exactly does the universe have in store for them . . . ?
Maybe nothing. After all, they get separated.
Maybe everything. After all, they get reunited.
But what if they cant nail a first date even after three do-overs?
What if Arthur tries too hard to make it work and Ben doesnt try hard enough?
What if life really isnt like a Broadway play?
But what if it is?
What if its us?

This joyful romance is both sweet and substantial.

From the Back Cover
Arthur is only in New York for the summer, but if Broadway has taught him anything, its that the universe can deliver a showstopping romance when you least expect it.
Ben thinks the universe needs to mind its business. If the universe had his back, he wouldnt be on his way to the post office carrying a box of his ex-boyfriends things.
But when Arthur and Ben meet-cute at the post office, what exactly does the universe have in store for them?
Maybe nothing. After all, they get separated.
Maybe everything. After all, they get reunited.
But what if they cant quite nail a first date . . . or a second first date . . . or a third?
What if Arthur tries too hard to make it work... and Ben doesnt try hard enough?
What if life really isnt like a Broadway show?
But what if it is?
