3.9/5 (rounded to four)
Hannah Cho had her whole summer and senior year planned out with her friends and boyfriend, Nate. But when Nate breaks up with her because apparently they have nothing in common. Hannah is devastated. All she wants is to be American...and less Korean, which seems impossible given the recent obsession of many- K-pop and K-dramas- that Hannah has tried to avoid for years.
Someone that know everything about K-dramas? Jacob Kim, aka Hannah's former best friend and K-drama star. With the fame, obligations and fans getting too much, Jacob decides to go back to his childhood home, San Diego. But rest isn't the only thing on his itinerary, its also reconciliation with Hannah.
Can the two figure out where it all went down hill, or are they doomed to forever dance around some newly developed feelings?
Honestly, this book was so cute! It perfectly addresses the hardships of being Asian-American as well as connecting with your roots. Hannah and Jacob had very good chemistry (it did not feel forced). Truly the only reason why I didn't give five stars was because there wasn't any action or climax f0r me. It all fell a tad flat
