Summary

Ji-woo dreams of becoming a writer and is back in college giving it a second shot. But then Weon-gyu, her first love, comes back into her new life. Will she give up on her dreams or will she write them a happy ending?

 

What I Thought

I really enjoyed this book!  For it being only about 5,000 words, I admit, I was a bit unsure if this story would be able to be fully developed.  That being said, it was for me.

I really enjoyed the characters in this book.  Ji-woo felt very relatable to me.  I found her struggles and triumphs to be very similar to the kind of things I, along with I’m sure many other college-aged folks, go through.  Even though this book is short, I found myself becoming completely invested in the characters.  I was very curious to see how things would go.

Another thing I really enjoyed were the flashbacks that are in this story.  Flashbacks in books are iffy things for me.  Either I really enjoy them, or they end up just making things confusing.  For this time, however, I really enjoyed them!  They helped add backstory and gave the characters and their journey much more depth.

Honestly, the only thing I didn’t love about this story was that it was over so quickly!  I would have loved to keep reading more and find out what happened next.

Overall, this was a very nice, quick, enjoyable read.  I would recommend this book to contemporary fans!

*I received this book in exchange for an honest review. A huge thank you to the author!!*
