Publisher Description
Real life is messier than the movies. A bold, thought-provoking novel from the exceptionally talented, Steven Camden.
He’s Luke. She’s Leia.
Just like in Star Wars. Just like they’re made for each other. Same film studies course, different backgrounds, different ends of town.
Only this isn’t a film. This is real life. This is where monsters from the past come back to take revenge. This is where you are sometimes the monster. And where the things we build to protect us, can end up doing the most harm…

APPLE BOOKS REVIEW
This is one of the most fun and original love stories we’ve read in a while. Luke takes two buses to attend a prestigious uni film studies program across town. Luke’s classmate Leia comes from a well-to-do family, but she shares his taste in film and his artistic passion. There’s so much more to It's About Love than its entertaining meet-cute, opposites-attract premise. With its intelligent protagonists, wrenching drama and warm emotion, the novel has the universal appeal of coming-of-age classics like The Fault in Our Stars and The Perks of Being a Wallflower. We loved Luke’s heartfelt notebook entries and the snippets of the screenplays he composes in private.
