This is an excellent read. It wasn't just a cute romance, it dealt with more mature themes, such as, trying to live up to expectations, and learning about a person's culture. I had never learned much about Chinese culture, much less, what LoveBoat is, so it was refreshing to not only learn something new but understand another person's viewpoint, like how they feel and handle things differently from me.
