With the drop of this juicy teaser, fans are looking forward to the whole novel even more so than ever, because of all the details it contains. While Jessica herself has stated that the book is purely fiction, fans can’t help but make certain connections due to Jessica making certain mentions, such as… this allusion to a nine-member K-Pop girl group in her book.
Fans are thrilled at what they expect to be a very intriguing debut novel, thats not only slated to have a sequel, but is also in talks to be a Hollywood movie!
