Cute YA romance involving a Korean-American cellist and a K-Pop idol. Pretty surface level, no real surprises, but still fun and adorable. Didn‘t really like the audio narrator- seemed a little wooden in delivery, and I hope that wasn‘t a choice. Still, there‘s a companion book now that I might check out.

Finally finished a book again!! ✌️ Pregnancy brain made focussing on a book really hard but the maternity leave relaxation helps with the focus. So glad I can now work on my backlog a bit. I enjoyed the book, it was entertaining and I didn‘t need to think real hard about the story&plot which made my focus better as well! #checkandmate #alihazelwood

Chose this one. Got a fire going. Not feeling very well. I do hope with some rest I won't get really sick.

maich Hope you feel better. It is this strange weather that we all feel different. 1mo

Deifio Thank you @maich and @Soubhiville I do hope to get around a cold. Certainly feels like the beginnings of one. The kids feel a bit under the weather too. Reading lots, so that should help 😉 1mo

I love Ali Hazelwood and this YA debut was so good. The characters, the world of competitive chess and the stresses of caring for family at a young age were all so well written. Loved the audiobook!

American-Korean girl meets cute Korean boy in LA, has loads of fun, and falls head over heels. But he goes back to #SouthKorea & doesn‘t respond to her texts. When she travels to Korea with her Mom to help with her ill grandmother, she meets him again-& surprise! He‘s a k-pop superstar! This is a super cute fun read, with many good food references. Highly recommended! #foodandlit @Catsandbooks

Bookwormjillk Sounds fun! Adding it to my list. 2mo
Texreader @Bookwormjillk It‘s such a nice, well-written, sweet read…especially if you‘ve been reading dark or sad books. 2mo

I just cannot focus on Iron Flame right now so to change it up I will be reading this one! I enjoyed her previous work and am curious about the latest arrival. (Already have Bride ready as well on Kindle!)

This is about the prequel novella, not the book ‚the stand-in boyfriend‘ !
I really hated the mc of the novella, can‘t recommend it at all 🙈
Changed my rating from 3 to 2 ⭐️
