This book was really cute, but i think i might just be to old for it. The storyline felt a little unrealistic but I would probably have loved this when i was 11-ish. I loved the way Park described Eleanor, and the ending was really beautiful and sad, but other than that the characters where kinda flat. But the worst part about this book was definetly the microagressions, the book is filled with weird racist remarks, and the main character (who is korean) is called PARK?! Like???? Im asuming it was to show how racist society was back then, but like the whole ninja thing and the random comment about the black guy?? If you want to write a character who struggels with race, you need to do some research, atleast enough to know you can’t call a korean guy Park.

This is such a beautiful book. It felt like failing in love for the first time all over again. It was lighthearted and heavy, sometimes passionate and cold. The main characters are so unique with their passion for music and comic books. I have such major book hanger with the way the things are ended in the book, but I’m still so glad I checked it out in my library. Sure the lines were cheesy and things were so cliche and fast, but I loved it because it brought nostalgia and feelings back from my first love.
