Favorite Authors Part 10: Lyla Lee

  Welcome back to another part of my Favorite Authors series! Here is another one that's a little more recent. The first book I read from Lyla Lee was I'll Be the One back in 2022. I absolutely loved it! Whenever I recommend people a book about K Pop, Korean rep, plus-sized rep, and queer rep, I recommend this one! I then read Flip the Script later in the same year. Also a masterpiece! This one is about K-Dramas and also features plenty of queer representation.

But I usually do admit it when I DNF a book.  3. Have you ever borrowed a book and never returned it? Oh yes. I one time borrowed a copy of Runaway Ralph by Beverly Clearly from my fifth grade teacher and I never returned it. I still have it in my house after all these years. I don't think she ever noticed I never brought it back...unless she's reading this right now (sorry, Miss!). But it's bee...
