Just finished reading this & it was so cute. First of all, I LOVE LOVE LOVE that cover. It's so beautiful. Whoever decided that cover & whoever created it, deserves an applause. The story is so cute. As a Kpop fan myself, I related to so many fangirling things mentioned in here. And it helped a lot while reading this book. Because I know the Korean words, slangs & other things related to Kpop that was mentioned in the book, it felt so close to the heart. It reminded me of my teenage years when I was a delusional highschool girl too. This book is cliche sometimes, but it's the right amount. And then again, it's YA so it's acceptable. I love Jenny's little friend group. I love how the friends portrays a huge part in this book. It gives me comfort. Jaewoo's mom & sister also so nice. Jenny's uncle & grandma are the best. Although she needs a talk with her mom, she's not bad either.
I love this book. I hope Nathaniel & Sori could've gotten their happy ending, but it's good either way.
This book gave me so much nostalgia.
P.s. I loved it mentioned BTS 's blood sweat & tears as a classic. It was an epic moment 🫡
