by SangEun Lee, 179 pagesJunior high student Hee-So knows it was love at first sight when she met quiet Won-Jun. After appearing on a love-confession reality show, she finally told him how she felt and he agreed to go out with her. But Hee-So's happiness is short-lived, as only a month later he breaks off the relationship, saying he's not good for her. Hee-So is nothing if not determined (she announced her love on national television, after all) and she won't accept his decision as the final word. After missing the mark with her past 11 boyfriends, she's finally found her destiny--and she won't let him off the hook so easily. If only his obnoxious best friend Whie-Young weren't in the way making things complicated....
I think I know where this story is going. If the numbers are any clue, that is. Between Hee-So's random talking cactus Beatrice (okaaaaaay), Whie-Young's (and maybe Won-Jun's?) secret supernatural abilities, and the circuitous ways of destiny-determining messages in bottles, I'm not quite confident enough to predict an outcome just yet. I'm sure there will be plenty of silliness and melodrama between here and there and, for now, I'm happy to tag along for the ride.
