I’m probably never going to stop talking about these boys, as their debut was fantastic. Thus far, besides NCT, I think this is one of my favorite debuts to date. Because of this, TXT The Dream Chapter: Star had to make it into my collection.
I ordered a copy of the album from an eBay seller in the US. This is a link to the exact one I’ve ordered. I got my copy for $19.99 plus shipping, which is a fair price. Plus, with eBay, you can save a little bit of money by using the E-Bates extension on your browser, as it will save you 2% on all album purchases, which definitely adds up.
What is E-Bates?
E-Bates is a cashback site that gives you money for purchases you may have already made. They even have an extension for multiple browsers so when you go to a website that uses Ebates, it will automatically pop up the cashback button to make sure you are saving money. I use this all the time, and I got over 80$ back from them for purchases I was going to make anyway. That’s about 3 more albums I can buy!
If you’ve never used EBates before, you can use this link to get $10 when making a qualified purchase of $25 when using EBates. You will also get whatever percent cashback is being offered from the site you are purchasing from. Sephora, typically has 4% cashback, through here. Sokoglam typically has 3%. These percentages Many other major retailers are on there as well.
Can I get it on Amazon?
Yes! You can pick up a copy using this link here for $25.50 (not as good of a deal), with free shipping if you have Amazon Prime.
If you don’t have Amazon Prime, you can get a 30-day free trial using this link here. I will not lie, the free 2-day shipping, plus all of the free music and videos are totally worth it. I also now use it for books for my Kindle Paper White too, and it is honestly a life saver. They have a program called Kindle Unlimited where you can check out 10 books at a time, read them, and put them back in the Kindle library. The program cost $7.99 a month, and you get the first 30 days for free with this link.

K-Points: 86/5
Any album that gives me a sticker sheet gets top marks. Well, TXT The Dream Chapter: Star gave me two. It makes me live. More than that, I love all of the extra touches, like the frame for the photo card, and the ring for the other one. Not only is the music on the album good, but the packaging on the album is great as well.
So should you get yourself a copy of this album? Okay, so this album is just a mini-album. Despite that, I think that this mini-album is fantastic, and that TXT has a bright future is ahead of them. They’re great, and will pave the way for this new generation of K-Pop. For that reason alone, I think it is worth having. Should you stream it? I can’t think of any reason you shouldn’t. Even though the songs are all coming of age songs, they’re cute and hella catchy. 100% worth a listen!
