The Playlist

By Nat Christo

A queer romance about love, loss, first times, and rad times

Gina Vergotti, a new teacher with an old soul, is reeling after the suicide of Lily, a friend and mentor… who was also her gay awakening.

Charismatic, young-at-heart rock musician, Cori Ryder, is also floundering after Lily’s death, since she was her roommate and needs to find a new place to crash stat.

In the aftermath of the tragedy, Gina and Cori move in together. Soon after, they embark on a road trip from New York to Nevada to return Lily’s belongings to her family… and to gain some insight into the mysterious playlist that Lily made for Gina before she died. Though their new connection deepens, it’s obvious that both of them have a lot of growing up to do. The trip leaves them forever changed, but do their respective “forevers” include each other?

This story of loss, love, music, maturation, romance, and redemption unfolds over a span of more than four years, in settings as diverse as New York City, Nevada, Washington State, and places in between. Join the journey of Gina and Cori as they find themselves and each other across time and spaces. And yes, The Playlist includes the actual playlist, the song titles listed as the names of the chapters.
