I won this book in a giveaway from Kstars in Manchester and I didn’t know what to expect as I’ve never read a book like this before. I thought it was so good. The chemistry was wild!
I do wonder if an alternative ending if he stayed a kpop idol and he got more famous and somehow they made it work. A lot of kdramas and books end with they leave their career behind and I feel like I’m yet to find a kdrama or book that has the idol keep doing their career and date and be happy. I know it’s so rare to find in the kpop world/industry and next to unrealistic but it’s not impossible! They’re people too and deserve to have their career and be happy!
Either way I absolutely loved this book and finished it in one sitting! They weren’t joking when they said they couldn’t put it down!!

This book was perfection. I couldn’t put it down. It was so wholesome and tugged on my heart strings.
Fran and Jae-seung are such loveable characters, I really enjoyed seeing their love story build and also their development as individuals! This book didn’t just focus on their relationship though, it had complicated familial relationships and unbreakable friendships (the bond between Fran and Clara was the best). This book had so many layers and I think it’s the main reason why I enjoyed it so much.
You get to travel the world with Fran and Jae-seung, see their love for eachother grow, watch them both find themselves as individuals and open up. It’s a beautiful book. Also a special mention to the Taylor Swift references throughout the book, the swiftie in me was very pleased by those!
This is the first book I’ve read by Caroline but definitely won’t be the last! If you’re looking for a new cute rom com to read then definitely add this one to your list!

This book was just not my cup of tea. I didn’t like either of the central characters and found the whole thing too cringe.
