About the event

Venessa will be in conversation with Becky Albertalli, Charlene Thomas, and Lakita Wilson to celebrate the release of Becky’s new book, AMELIA, IF ONLY!


Amelia Applebaum isn’t in love with Walter Holland. He just happens to be her favorite moderately famous, chaotically bisexual YouTuber. Who she just happened to invite to prom. (But it’s fine. No, for real. If you delete the post, it didn’t happen.)

Okay, maybe her friends are right: she’s slightly parasocially infatuated. But Amelia just knows sparks would fly—if only she could meet Walter for real.

If only he would host a meet and greet.

If only it were just a short road trip away.

And if only she could talk her best friends into making it the perfect last hurrah before graduation—even Amelia’s newly single, always-cynical, guitar-toting best friend Natalie.
