Normally, I give epistolaries a maximum of 3 stars, but this definitely deserves to be an exception. I wouldn’t even mind if they drag this one a bit longer. The story is just too adorable from start to end.

I wonder how many people had the sudden urge to take a detour to Din Tai Fung after reading this, because definitely wouldn’t mind right now.

I thought I was going to hate this because nobody will ever talk me into romanticizing Irvine. I’m sorry, it’s not possible.
However, this is the first Christina Lauren work I’ve enjoyed since Love and Other Words. I laughed out loud at some points, and for such a small story, I was really rooting for these epistolary childhood friends.
