From debut author Lio Min comes BEATING HEART BABY, a tender love letter to internet friendships, anime, and indie rock, perfect for fans of HEARTSTOPPER
When Santi arrives in Los Angeles, he hopes he can move past the loss of the childhood internet friend he’d known only as Memo. And in his new high school’s marching band, Santi gets a taste of the community he’s always longed for. Even the clashes with his section leader, Suwa, lead to Suwa opening up to Santi first as a friend, then something more. But when Suwa gets a shot at the rock star life he’s always dreamed of, the very thing that drew them to each other—a shared devotion to art—tests their budding relationship.
Over years, Santi and Suwa glide and soar, crash and fall, together and apart. This twinned tale about the transitions between boyhood and manhood, internet confidants and IRL friends, the face in the crowd and the star on the stage, stakes and succeeds in making the bold claim: that Santi and Suwa’s fantastic dreams are as essential as art and love and life itself.

This book is pure magic. I laughed at parts. I cried at parts. I felt my heart strings tugged and my heart shattered. I’m so in love with this book, I’m honestly struggling to write a review. I’m sitting here smiling at my screen like a moron because I just love these characters so freaking much. This is the kind of book I wish I had when I was a kid. This is the kind of love story and the kind of YA romance that needs to be everywhere. Not just because of the LGBT+ aspect, yes, that’s a huge aspect. Maybe I wouldn’t have taken until my 30’s for me to come out as queer. But also that it’s not a perfect romance. It’s messy and it’s jaded. And they both get their own redemption arc. Supportive but blunt friends. Even birth parents get their own sort of redemption, but with boundaries, and parents of our hearts are chosen. This book is everything. I love it so much!! I could go on and on. but honestly everyone needs to read this book!!
