Just finished this cute YA romance ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
And now, readerly joy! I loved this YA romance about a trio of queer teenage actors navigating their way through K-drama roles and Seoul adventures and the perils of existing in a society where most of the older generation is actively homophobic. Lyla Lee strikes a good balance between the delight they all take in one another and the very real threats to their careers and their relationships with their parents. #gaymay
K-drama actress Hana navigates the complexities of being famous combined with xenophobia, sexism, and homophobia. A high so-so, almost a low pick. At first I thought this was going to be exactly like I'll Be the One by the same author, but it eventually did deviate. If you like popstar drama books or fluffy romances, give this a try!
I'm a long way from a first bingo for this year's bingo board!

When the lead actress on a new K Drama is asked to fake date her onscreen love interest to boost the show's views, she assumes pretending to live him will be the biggest challenge of her acting career. But when her former friend / rival is cast as an opposing love interest on the show, she finds herself falling for real--and if anyone finds out it could end her career just as it's taking off. A fun YA contemporary / romance.
