Love in Focus by Lyla Lee

4.0

Yes, Sapphic Second-Chance Romance! I really enjoyed this one. Gemma's whole life has been blown up by a cancelled engagement and now she has to write about love with her college ex who ghosted her. Celeste thinks she is incapable of love, even when she's working with the one-who-got-away, Gemma. I thought the writing about the experience of queer people in Korea as well the challenges for young queer Asians not having elders to look up to really moving. This is also a book where I appreciated the 3rd act breakup and how these two reconnected.  Drink this book: Grab a chardonnay from as close to the bay as you can - Contra Costa Country is a great option!
