Review of 'Somewhere in the Crowd' on 'Storygraph'

3 stars

A Eurovision rom-com where four strangers meet at Eurovision in Oslo 2010 trying to blag their way backstage. They make a pact to meet each other again at next year’s Eurovision finale. They meet each year at Eurovision through to today as the book follows their lives, successes, loves and iconic Eurovision moments. It’s about their friendship and belonging in the sequined lights of the song contest.

This is certainly fun for Eurovision fans, though I didn’t really get into the characters and their dramas as much as I’d hoped. But certainly, James was lovely (trust me to go after the gay romance in there) and I got a bit more into it towards the end. It’s a slow burn I guess? But full of Eurovision events, trivia, and the typical family members and partners who sneer at it.
