5 parts Complete MatureSixteen-year-old Carina DeLuca returns to Seattle after a summer in Sicily that has transformed her. More confident, with a new look courtesy of her cousin, she enters her junior year with a body and attitude that don't go unnoticed. But what troubles her most is not the way others look at her, but the way her lifelong friend Maya Bishop looks at her.
Friends for four years, Carina and Maya suddenly see each other in a new light. The summer has changed their bodies, but also the way they look at each other: every touch, every smile, every gesture becomes charged with a new tension. Between classes, confidences, and teenage awkwardness, the two girls struggle against the obvious attraction that draws them irresistibly to each other.
Their circle of friends-Vic, Travis, Andy, Jack, and the others-continue to surround them, but Carina and Maya gradually find themselves in a bubble where friendship seems ready to transform into first love. Between the fear of rejection, budding desire, and troubling discoveries, they will have to face what it means to grow up... and to love for the first time.
My Favorite Song is a story of awakening, desire, and transformation, where the summer of their sixteenth year becomes the starting point for an intimate and irreversible upheaval.
