This book perfectly captures the obnoxious/cringey/naive way teenagers think, talk, and act. An insight into what it's like being the son of Korean immagrant parents and trying to find your way in the world.

As a 30-year-old woman reading this books I kept thinking the romantic relationships didn't have a ton of build up or fallout; forgetting that I myself was once an 18 year old who impulsively dumped my long-term high school boyfriend to go out with a guy I had spent a week with on a mission trip right after graduation.
