So, I want to start by stating something the other reviews have pointed out: this book can’t really stand alone if you haven’t seen/read any other HYYH content, imo. The writing isn’t necessarily confusing, but I feel that the plot wouldn’t have made too much sense if I didn’t previously know some of the settings/events from the webtoon or music videos.
Regardless, I found this book to be a great read. It gives great insight to the surrounding situations and childhood stories that each boy faces, especially when trying to figure out why things happened the way they did. I through holy enjoyed the read and felt so much emotions for each character and their situations. Can’t wait to get started on the second book :)

Wow 😳 This book was a continuation of “Save Me” (Webtoon I read in 2021) and it was definitely a detailed and heartbreaking storyline to follow. I felt emotional while reading about every character and the hardships they endured along the way. I’m also glad that I had a book buddy reading this alongside me to remind me everyone and everything was ok 😅😭📚 On to Notes 2 to see what happens next…
