I really enjoyed Lily Chu's first book, The Stand-In, and when I saw she had another book out on a random trip to Target, I knew I had to pick it up. I'm so glad I did! Lily has a way of writing complex, yet relatable characters in scenarios that border reality and fantasy (hello, hot k-pop idol falling in love with a commoner/foreigner). I loved seeing the relationship bloom between the MC, Ariadne, and the love interest, Jihoon. Two flawed, yet lovable characters. In this, the reader gets to see two very different people with very different lives making mistakes but finding their way through love.
