Fact: You’re never too old to enjoy a YA novel — especially if it’s penned by a pop star who’s been dubbed “Lesbian Jesus” by fans. That’s right: Singer, actress, and internet darling Hayley Kiyoko is writing her first YA novel.
On Wednesday, Kiyoko announced on Instagram that the book, inspired by her 2015 hit song and subsequent music video “Girls Like Girls,” will debut on May 30, 2023 — and it’s officially available for pre-order now. “Writing a coming-of-age YA novel based on Girls Like Girls,” reads the overlay on Kiyoko’s Instagram Reel, which shows the triple threat typing away on a typewriter. The caption: “Girls Like Girls that pre-order Girls Like Girls the novel”.
