About to become a DNF

Felt like a dream. The story she wrote ended up becoming her reality.

There were exciting moments but overall a bit disjointed

Fun! 4.2 ish the ending wasn’t as good as I hoped

Pretty unique style. Magic realism on audio is strange

Woah I have not read a book like this. You hate so many characters and the ideologies are extremist. Very satirical. We know all these characters in real life

Pretty funny 3.5. Forever a convenience store woman

DNF

4 in that I read it in three days but would I recommend it not so sure. I probably should have read it in Korean

So close to finishing but also did not finish. Lent from Rachel. Each chapter felt parallel to the other. Is there a real end? Did I just get tired of the plot? The language was good though

Did not finish it was good but the middle didn’t have a peak and I couldn’t finish it

Zoning in and out

For book club

Main character isn’t very likeable

Woah psychedelics are cool and mystifying. The personal accounts are particularly interesting. Felt historical and academic

I’m starting to tune out a bit more around now. Not sure why but maybe it will start picking up again. I feel like a lot is happening but I’m zoning out to it. Not sure why

This is so hard to read but so important for me to read personally. The deep accounts of comfort women is not what I expected when reading the cover of a haenyu. It’s very sad

Liked the structure. Not plot driven but a trip down memory lane. Especially this cover

Comedic and strange. Beginning was better than the end

So good. So dark and telling. The world is scary and I have no words for the behavior of some. I need to be better too. This book helped me see that
