One of the cutest YA romances I’ve read in the longest time!!! I fully believed Linh and Bao’s feelings for each other, and completely adored them as a couple. The backdrop of Vietnamese-American culture and family was such an interesting and well-incorporated element to the story, and made this more than just another cute love story with a miscommunication twist. The ending was very rushed, however — Bao’s article should have been a more important plot line, and stretching it back further would have made his arc even better. Overall though, this was a pure fun time, and I loved diving into a YA romance that actually made me squeal with happiness!
