This was my first Lily Chu book and I definitely want to read more! I knew nothing about K-Pop going into this but feel like I need to do some investigating because I’m fascinated by the whole thing. Ari and Jihoon are super cute together - I love Jihoon’s emotional intelligence and desire to communicate - and Ari had such an amazing sense of humor. I just wish there had been a little less will they/won’t they! Overall a really fun book and excited for reading more books by Chu!
