I Believe in a Thing Called Love by Maurene Goo

May 18, 2022  /  Will Sengotta

Listen I believe in a thing called love excerpt

I Believe in a Thing Called Love tells the story of hard-working high school senior, Desi Lee, who is successful in all her academic pursuits, but has never had a boyfriend. Determined to capture the heart of her crush, Luca, Desi decides to do what she does best, study. Desi creates her "K Drama Rules for True Love" and attempts to win Luca over through imitating techniques and tropes found in Korean Dramas.

Maurene Goo has written several YA novels including Somewhere Only We Know and The Way You Make Me Feel. She has also written for the Silk series in the Marvel universe. I Believe in a Thing Called Love was a Kirkus Best Teen Books of the Year, NPR Best Book of the Year, and Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year.

If you could recommend one non-English TV show for a friend to watch, what would it be?
