Fans of Tegan and Sara's music, is there a young adult novel or indie love story capturing that same queer yearning and introspective vibe? I loved the memoir's emotional tone.
Tegan and Sara's 'Crush' is a deeply personal indie-pop memoir about twinhood and identity, so finding a direct book match is tricky. For fictional stories that capture that intense, emotionally complex connection between two people, I recently read 'Crave: A Collection Of Wicked Desires'. It's a series of interconnected sapphic romances where the central relationship is a messy, all-consuming rivalry between two women bound by family legacy, and their tension really nails that feeling of a deep, unavoidable pull.
Tegan and Sara’s 'Crush' is such a raw, emotional ride—it’s like a love letter to queer adolescence. If you’re craving more books that capture that same mix of vulnerability and electric attraction, I’d totally recommend 'One Last Stop' by Casey McQuiston. It’s got that same nostalgic, heart-fluttering vibe but with a time-travel twist that keeps things fresh. The chemistry between August and Jane is chef’s kiss—just like Tegan and Sara’s lyrics, it’s sweet but never saccharine.
Another gem is 'Honey Girl' by Morgan Rogers. The protagonist’s messy, beautiful journey of self-discovery after a drunken Vegas marriage feels like it could soundtrack a T&S deep cut. The book’s exploration of identity and the pressures of adulthood hits hard, much like how 'Crush' digs into the chaos of young love. Bonus: both books have that same cozy, late-night confessional energy.
Looking for reads that echo 'Crush’s' blend of queerness and coming-of-age tenderness? 'Girl Made of Stars' by Ashley Herring Blake wrecked me in the best way. It tackles heavy themes like consent and trauma, but the sibling dynamic—so central to Tegan and Sara’s story—shines here too. The prose is lyrical, almost musical, which feels fitting.
For something lighter but equally heartfelt, 'She Gets the Girl' by Rachael Lippincott and Alyson Derrick is a rom-com with depth. Two girls fake-date to win over their crushes, only to realize they’re falling for each other. The awkwardness, the banter—it’s all so reminiscent of T&S’s early diary-like songs. Plus, the Pittsburgh setting gives it a grounded, authentic feel.
If 'Crush' resonated with you, try 'The Falling in Love Montage' by Ciara Smyth. It’s got that same bittersweet, 'is this love or just a summer fling?' tension. The protagonist’s sarcastic voice and fear of repeating her mom’s mistakes add layers, much like Tegan and Sara’s lyrics peel back emotions layer by layer.
Or dive into 'Late to the Party' by Kelly Quindlen—a quieter exploration of queer firsts and friendship. The protagonist’s late bloomer arc feels like a companion to T&S’s 'Nineteen,' full of yearning and self-doubt turned into something beautiful.

He shouldn’t have imagined her lying naked on his bed. She shouldn’t have imagined his devilishly handsome face between her legs.
But it was too late.
Kiara began noticing Ethan's washboard abs when he hopped out of the pool, dripping wet after swim practice. Ethan began gazing at Kiara’s golden skin in a bikini as a grown woman instead of the girl next door he grew up with.
That kiss should have never happened.
It was just one moment in a lifetime of moments, but they both felt its power. They knew the thrumming in their veins and desperation in their bodies might give them all they ever wanted or ruin everything if they followed it.
Kiara and Ethan knew they should have never kissed. But it's too late to take that choice back, so they have a new one to make.
Fall for each other and risk their friendship or try to forget one little kiss that might change everything.
PREVIEW:
“If you don’t want to kiss me then... let’s swim.”
“Yeah, sure.”
“Naked.”
“What?”
“I always wanted to try skinny dipping. And I really want to get out of these clothes.”
“What if someone catches you... me, both?”
“We will be in the pool, Ethan. And no one can see us from the living room.” I smirked when I said, “Unless you want to watch me while I swim, you can stay here.”
His eyes darkened, and he looked away, probably thinking the same when I noticed red blush creeping up his neck and making his ears and cheeks flush. Cute.
“Come on, Ethan. Don’t be a chicken...”
“Fine.”
His voice was rough when he said, “Remove that sweater first.”
His songs were better when he had a broken heart.
That sentence would change my life after my dream job was dished to me on a shiny, silver platter.
All I had to do?
Hurt Nash Pierce enough to get him writing good music again.
The pop icon’s songs were no longer the phenomena they used to be. His team needed another breakthrough album—like the first he’d penned, using his heartbreak as fuel.
The plan was simple: I’d go on tour with him as a backup dancer…and make him fall in love with me. I was hired to inspire—to become embedded into every lyric he wrote. Then, I was to set fire to it all—to destroy every feeling we hoped he’d develop for me.
It seemed simple enough. Easy, even.
I didn’t expect to be consumed myself—to see so much in the man displayed in the tabloids. I didn’t foresee falling for him. It didn’t occur to me that, while attempting to break his heart, I might just shatter my own.
Most of all, I never thought I’d fight so hard to hold on to a relationship that had always been founded on goodbye.
Nicole has loved Odell for as long as she can remember. From childhood to adulthood, he has always been the center of her world, until he vanishes without explanation, leaving her with nothing but unanswered questions and a heart that never quite lets go.
Years later, fate brings them back together in a world of privilege, secrets, and carefully crafted appearances. As Nicole chases her dreams and rekindles her connection with Odell, old feelings resurface, but not everything is as it seems. Beneath the charm and familiarity lies a truth that challenges everything Nicole believes about love, loyalty, and desire.
My Crush Is Gay is a gripping story of longing, obsession, and self-discovery, where love blurs into denial, and the hardest truths are the ones we never expect.
If you loved the raw, gritty energy of 'Rock Groupie: The Intimate Adventures,' you might dive into 'Groupie' by Jenny Fabian. It’s got that same unfiltered vibe, diving deep into the chaotic world of music fandom and the blurred lines between admiration and obsession. Another wild ride is 'I’m with the Band' by Pamela Des Barres—it’s practically the bible of groupie memoirs, packed with juicy anecdotes and a surprising amount of heart.
For fiction that captures the same rebellious spirit, try 'Velvet Goldmine' (though it’s technically a film, the accompanying novelization and fan works expand its universe). Or 'The Dirt' by Motley Crue, which isn’t about groupies per se but oozes the same debauchery and rock ’n’ roll chaos. Honestly, after reading these, you’ll feel like you’ve lived a hundred backstage lives.
If you loved the wild, electric vibe of 'How to Flirt with a Rock Star,' you might dig 'Groupie' by Chelsea Handler—it’s got that same reckless, adrenaline-fueled romance but with a darker edge. The protagonist’s messy, passionate entanglement with a musician feels raw and unpolished, just like real life.
For something lighter but equally addictive, 'The Idea of You' by Robinne Lee nails the fantasy of dating a superstar while keeping the emotional stakes high. It’s less about the glitz and more about the quiet, stolen moments that make the relationship feel real. I couldn’t put it down, and I bet you’ll feel the same.
