Booksmart meets Phantom of the Megaplex in Zakiya N. Jamal's debut enthralling enemies-to-lovers queer romance, set against the backdrop of a historic Black-owned movie theater, the quirky employees who work there, and the suburbs of Long Island. Perfect for fans of Leah Johnson and Today Tonight Tomorrow.

“A sapphic love story as sweet and funny as it is nostalgic and cinematic.” —Leah Johnson, bestselling author of You Should See Me in a Crown

Lights. Camera. Love?

Rochelle “the Shell” Coleman is laser focused on only three things: becoming valedictorian, getting into Wharton, and, of course, taking down her annoyingly charismatic nemesis and only academic competition, Amira Rodriguez. However, despite her stellar grades, Rochelle’s college application is missing that extra special something: a job.

When Rochelle gets an opportunity to work at Horizon Cinemas, the beloved Black-owned movie theater, she begrudgingly jumps at the chance to boost her chances at getting into her dream school. There’s only one problem: Amira works there…and is also her boss.

Rochelle feels that working with Amira is its own kind of horror movie, but as the two begin working closely together, Rochelle starts to see Amira in a new light, one that may have her beginning to actually…like her?

But Horizon’s in trouble, and when mysterious things begin happening that make Horizon’s chances of staying open slimmer, it’s up to the employees to solve the mystery before it’s too late, but will love also find its way into the spotlight?

Praise for If We Were a Movie:

""Jamal’s debut YA novel is a fun summer romance with an engaging mystery to follow.""—ALA Booklist

""An enemies-to-lovers romance with a cinematic backdrop…that celebrates friendship, forgiveness, and Black cinema."" —School Library Journal

“Combining all of my favorite aspects of a classic YA novel, an endless summer, friends who feel like family, and a heartstirring romance, this book is sure to make readers swoon.” —Kristina Forest , USA Today bestselling author of The Partner Plot

“This novel has the nostalgic charm of classic teen flicks with modern wit and stakes. Backdropped by a unique cinematic setting full of lively characters, this rivals-to-lovers romance will have you smiling and cheering long after the credits roll.” —Racquel Marie, award-winning author of Ophelia After All

“With the cutest enemies-to-lovers romance and a friend group on a mission to save a historic Black-owned cinema, If We Were a Movie gives you characters that are impossible not to root for.” —Mae Coyiuto, acclaimed author of Chloe and the Kaishao Boys
