It’s a new clean, lighthearted series from
“Parakeet Princess” author, Jandy Branch. Set once again in the small,
Mormon town of Upton in the 1990s but populated by a brand new cast of
characters, this is the story of Hana Song. She’s lived all she can
remember of her life in an apartment on Main Street, over her parents’
restaurant. Now in her final year of high school, Hana is ready for
something exciting to happen in her quiet world. And that’s just what
she gets when a new guy appears in her chemistry class. Nolon’s parents
have “parachuted” him into Upton to let him start over after getting
into trouble with the law. But the law is everywhere. In Upton, it
takes the form of new police trainee and recently returned missionary,
Tyler Bowen. He’s just come home after spending two years in Korea and
he’s drawn to Hana and her Korean immigrant parents. And he’s worried
the person behind a mysterious, racially motivated crime against the
Song family might just be Nolon himself.
I've got to say, as a fan of Korean dramas, if you're a fan - you'll like this novel. Jandy's best quality as an author is knowing how to get her heroine in a heap of trouble, fishing her out ... only to land her in more trouble. I love that. This is an excellent read. Go get it today!
