I really wanted to love this book but sadly I just couldn't find it within myself to care about the romance between Anne and Frederick. They both were good characters, and their reason for the breakup ten year prior felt valid, but almost the entire book was filled with repetitive pining, miscommunication and lack of taking action. By the time Anne and Frederick finally confessed to each other and admitted their mistakes it was the final chapter, and we only got to see them together as a couple in the epilogue. The pacing in this book felt way too slow, and the story never really went anywhere. Nonetheless, it did have some sweet moments and some of the writing felt poetic and yearnful, however personally I just struggled to trudge through the 300+ pages of 'I want them but maybe they don't want me anymore'.

3/5 🌟

I really loved this novel! I have been introduced to so many great Asian authors as of late and I enjoy books by Maureen Goo & Jenny Hahn so I just knew this one would not disappoint at it most certainly didn’t. It had excellent characters … I loved the LA Setting and Kpop element .highly enjoyed this one!
