So I finished SEOULMATES again, and it had me in allllllll the feels, and I may have once again (okay, I did) cried. Christina Lauren said it best on the cover: “The perfect childhood friends-to-lovers story-full stop.” I’m not sure what else to say besides that I want to be friends with Hannah and Jacob so I can watch their romance unfold, irl. And I need Susan Lee to write the romance of my life, please. 

 

Also, this is just one of my happy, feel-good books, to the point that I forget to log it when I’m reading it. I’ll randomly pick it up for a quick chapter or two or for a full read-through just to give me some feel-good emotions. 

 

This reread was special, though. I have a hand-annotated edition of SEOULMATES by Susan Lee—it’s one of my prized possessions. It’s been a rough health time, so I needed the ultimate dose of pick-me-up reading medicine. It definitely was! I loved having her insight and doodles throughout the book as I read!
