I really loved this book! The story was well paced, full of drama and characters to die for. 

I love a good murder mystery. This was a fun one too. I loved all the twists and turns. Sure it can feel predictable but the journey was great. 

The characters are the heart and soul of this story. Seokga is still Seokga but he has also grown. Watching him fall in love with Kisa was beautiful and satisfying. Kisa is also a great. Very different from Hani but I too fell in love with her. Their relationship was so natural and satisfying! 

The side characters also were great. We see a familiar face as well as a new one that steals your heart. Love them so much!

The mental health rep also was excellent. Sophie handles some great deep issues like losing a friend or lover, the pressure of being an Idol, and letting yourself love another with grace and care. I love it!

All in all I loved this book! Highly recommend!
