I don’t even know if I have to add a spoiler alert to this review because everything that happens in the story happened in real life. …Even if, say, hypothetically, your nine-member girl group conspires to kick you out because your new fashion brand is wildly successful and changing your priorities. If the first book was about the idealism of pursuing your dreams, Bright is about the resilience it takes to live on your own terms. Here we are in April 2022, a few weeks out from the release of Bright, the sequel, and I don’t have much to say-she wrote a tell-all. Last year I wrote over a thousand words about Jessica Jung’s young adult debut novel, Shine, and how reading into the story as a tell-all was a disservice to Jung as an author.

But I feel like Jessica wrote this one with a point to prove, so I’m going to read into everything.
