    I don't know, but instead of "Himiss" you could use "Mit". I mean it is a mix of both and sounds kinda like "mid", so.. it would express the neutral feeling pretty good.

    As soon as I saw Hit, I knew I'll finally start READING 'The Gravity of Us' which has been sitting on my shelf for years.
    Thought it was a science fiction from the title but was disappointed when discovered it was contemporary. But now I've made myself accustomed to enough contemporary to know I can like contemporary too, if it contains heartfelt stories. I know Jesse's Hit/Miss game won't fail me, so I'm going to give this book a go!

    Irrelevant but i just finished the all for the game trilogy. And let me just say that whole thing was a hit for me. Especially the last book, when the official shock of "i thought this was just a book about sports and friends" wore off , the characters are well written and i have found myself realizing more and more how realistic they are. All the relationships are on point. Just. Yes.

    Jesse, I have a book recommendation for you. So I know you love kpop and so do I, so I thought this would be the perfect book for you. It's a book called "Shine" by Jessica Jung (yes, THE Jessica Jung from Girls Generation) The book is about this girl named Rachel who is Korean-American and trying to make it in the kpop industry. She eventually makes it into a group, but soon has to face the pressures of being an idol. She also meets this boy, but she can't date him because of the dating ban. I think you would like this book because you like kpop plus it's written by someone who was once in the industry!

    I don't know how you feel about rereading books, but I know for me, even though I read SciFi quite a bit and read a LOT of it when I was younger, there's always a bunch of stuff that I just don't get until like the second or even third time I read it. Totally normal to have SF go over your head.

    Cassie's books are 90% teen angst, romance, and drama. I haven't read any of her books since Queen of Air and Darkness because I was so disappointed that she didn't do more on the political side of things and just focused on the drama. I do plan to read the rest of the books in the shadowhunter world but I need a good long break from the drama.
