I'll Be the One by Lyla Lee

Title: I'll Be the One

Author: Lyla Lee

Genre: Contemporary Young Adult


Skye Shin is the total package: she can sing and dance amazingly. Only thing is, she's fatter than your typical K-Pop star, so when she decides to audition for an internationally broadcast competition, she knows it's going to be harder for her than most. Not only are the other competitors picture perfect, but they include gorgeous social media stars Henry Cho and his ex-girlfriend. While Skye's dad is totally on board, she is also coping with a less-than supportive mom at home who would rather Skye diet than dance. Can Skye achieve her dreams? Can she do it without losing herself in the process?


I liked this book because Skye knows who she is, and more importantly likes who she is, despite outside pressures to change. It's nice to have a protagonist that you can wholeheartedly cheer for.
