Here's To Us

By Adam Silvera and Becky Albertalli

Love Nick and Charlie from Heartstopper? Meet Arthur and Ben! In the follow-up to their charming NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER, What If It’s Us, best friends Adam Silvera (They Both Die At The End) and Becky Albertalli (Simon vs. The Homo Sapiens Agenda) reunite to give Arthur and Ben another shot at true love.

From the creator of 13 Reasons Why, What If It’s Us is soon to be a feature film!

Ben has spent his first year of college working on his fantasy manuscript with his writing partner Mario, who is a great Spanish tutor, and an even better kisser. So why can’t he stop thinking about the fact that Arthur’s back in town two years after they called it quits?

Arthur is in New York for a dream internship on Broadway, with a boyfriend back at home that he couldn't be happier with. But when he comes upon Ben cuddled up with a mystery boy, he starts to wonder if his feelings for Ben ever truly went away. 

Even as the boys try to focus on their futures, they can't seem to help running into each other in the present. Is the universe forcing them to question if they’re actually meant to be?

Possibly not. After all, things didn’t work the first time around.
Possibly yes. After all, the sparks are still flying.
Sometimes you just have to take a leap of faith and raise a glass.

Here’s to celebrating old friends!
Here’s to embracing new beginnings!
Here’s to believing in second chances!

Reviews for Here's To Us

[bibliovermis · Rating: 4 out of 5 stars]

This was sweet and well written, but I was a little disappointed at the one-true-love wrap up of the story. I liked how the previous book in the series, contravening other romance novels, pretty realistically implied that people can have multiple romantic relationships and be in love more than once in their lives. This one really took that back! But it was a lovely romance, anyway.

The first book dealt with real life problems and real-life feelings of these young boys. This book welcomes back all the characters, and they have matured by 2 years. It’s refreshing to see where their journeys went and how they're back together in New York. But everything stops there. They must work through their current circumstances and feelings to see where their own futures go, and if those futures include each other. The end was perfect. A beautiful love story.

I’m so in love with their love. The hardships of do-overs are depicted perfectly through Arthur and Ben’s thoughts. Adam and Becky nailed it once again with all the roller coasters of emotions they deliver through this sequel.

[MARIA NATALI MALKAN · Rating: 5 out of 5 stars]

I suppose I have more involved with this book because I read their book "what if it us". I didn't realize this book is a sequel from what if. I adore Ben and Arthur. It's a complicated story written in such a cute way. English is not my native language, Maybe I've missed some details about the whole story. But I really enjoy their adventures.
