Propulsive and sexy, Creative Differences is a sapphic second-chance romance for fans of Here We Go Again and Daisy Jones & The Six.

Swanboat was your favorite band's favorite band. But after one perfect record and one fraught, intimate tour, the confessional–indie rock trio—lead singer Amelia Wells, guitarist Ramona Sloane, and bassist Bea Fink—suddenly broke up.

Five years later, Amelia is a star: She's transitioned into mainstream pop music, performing sold-out shows for obsessed fans. It's everything she's convinced herself she should want . . . even though her fame has started to feel less like success and more like loneliness.

Ramona hasn't spoken to Amelia since the last night of the tour. She's content playing small crowds and avoiding Amelia's inescapable hit single, "Emergency Contact," during her slot at the local indie radio station.

When Amelia's record label suggests a Swanboat reunion tour, she and Ramona each have their own reasons for agreeing. And they'd both do anything for Bea, who still doesn't know about the kiss that broke their band apart. All Ramona and Amelia have to do is get through two months of playing the songs that made them fall in love in the first place . . . and try not to do it all over again.

sapphic indie pop princesses assemble!!! this is the second chance romance trope at its best — the FMCs' voices were each so distinct yet so relatable. the band in the story is very MUNA / boygenius coded. i really connected to Amelia's relationship with her family and her self doubt despite dizzying success. i felt Ramona’s man hating and self sabotaging nature. i loved Bea so much and how they served as a reality check for them both in different ways. the yearning! the tension! i was rooting for them all the whole time!!!! also the spice was hot AF. 11/10 highly recommend xoxo
