K-Pop Inspired

 XOXO by Axie Oh

This book was adorable. Giggling, smiling, kicking my feet adorable. I don't know of a single person who hasn't daydreamed of what it would be like to meet and fall in love with their celebrity crush. But, she didn't even realize he was a celebrity when they first met! Like Jenny I don't really know anything about K-pop so this was a new experience for me. But, it was so cute. I loved how Jenny thrived in her arts school in South Korea. She made friends, she learned the importance of being true to herself, she developed a relationship with her grandmother. All of it was wholesome and heartwarming. And Jaewoo. He learned that it's okay to live for yourself and not just for others. I was irritated at the secret nature of the relationship, but how it got resolved was great.  I liked the audiobook narrator; I'm not familiar with Korean so hearing the correct pronunciations of words was informative and enjoyable. I cannot wait to read the next book! Axie Oh is now on my must read list.
