Love is most definitely not just butterflies and first kisses. Join
Sasha Vey (The Set-Up Girl) and Gabrielle Tozer (The Unexpected Mess of It All) as they dive into how YA coming-of-age rom coms explore the complicated, often chaotic experience of growing up. From awkward crushes and friendships during high school, to navigating funny and fraught relationship dynamics, these authors share their behind-the-scenes takes on the genre. Come ready to swoon, giggle and maybe even recognise yourself in their characters, who are just trying to figure it out, one disaster at a time. A double take on #LoveOzYA!
