PE sophomore internship to IB recruitment junior year

I’m currently considering an internship offer at a LMM PE firm. My past internship was also on the buy side. Should I keep looking for an IB internship for this summer and are there still openings? Will accepting this offer reflect badly when I recruit for BB IB next year? Any advice on what to say if recruiters ask why I want to switch to sell side?
