Omg, I read this so long ago, I hardly remember the plot. I mean, it was a fun reading experience, just because of annotations my friend and I made in the book. And I liked some aspects of the plot a lot. But in the end, it was too over the top and too American for my taste. Concentrating on ridiculous aspects of K-pop too much and not enough on the training and day to day experiences of the characters. Also, the ending threw me completely off, I didn't like it at all. 
Will still read the sequel, though, for the same reading experience with my friends, mostly.
