I loved this book so much! It was so cute! Perfect enemies to lovers coffee shop romance.

River gets the chance to work at Bingsu for Two. His new coworker Sarang is determined to make his life hell. When River accidentally uploads a video of coworkers to his popular fandom amount, new fans ship him and Sarang. River needs to decide if he wants others let others keep controlling his life or if stand up for a place that’s become a home. What will he do? What about Sarang? Seems like she not as heartless as he thought she was.

I loved getting to listen to this. The story was so fun and sweet at the same time. I enjoyed how minimal the romance is. I would definitely recommend this book if you enjoy romcoms!

I can’t wait for Sujins next book! I really enjoy her writing and how quickly I was able to listen to this book. The narrator did a wonderful job! Also, how cute is this cover?! I want to go hang out at Bingsu for Two!

Thank you so much NetGalley, Brilliance Publishing and Sujin for the E-ALC!

I received an advanced listening copy of this audiobook for review. This is my own opinion.

Bingsu For Two is an adorable, angsty teen about River and his seventeen year old existential crisis. (Don’t feel bad, buddy, most of us know very little at that age.) River’s parents own a successful chain of cafes in Seattle, and he and his (HORRIBLE) girlfriend are co managers of the newest one. The book starts with River walking out of his SAT the day after breaking up with his girlfriend. He immediately goes to quit his job at the family’s shop. He then gets coffee dumped on him by a grumpy girl with green hair and goes to work for HER family shop, which just so happens to be one he tried to run out of business.

This book is filled with LOTS of teen drama, social media drama, exes in the workplace, family drama, and it was SO much fun. Everything that could possibly go wrong for sweet little River went wrong.

*I will note that his fandom activities are mentioned, and he’s very active in his fandom community, but after he accidentally uploads a video about the cafe to his fandom account, very little of his fandom stuff is mentioned, other than the fact that it exists. If you’re coming into this book expecting a lot of fandom, it’s not super present. I’m not bothered by the lack, and I don’t miss it in the story, but I think it does bear noting if you’re actively seeking fandom culture content!

I really enjoyed this one! Definitely recommend for fans of Ash Poston’s YA series or if you enjoyed A Banh Mi for Two (which is actually kind of an amusing coincidence given the titles—but the vibe is there!).

Thanks to Netgalley and Brilliance Publishing/Audio for the ALC!
