can't stop thinking about the sentence "[around/at least] half of all the cobalt in the world has seen the *touch* of child labor" (i'm paraphrasing) which is something the writer was told during his investigation. the absurdity of this sentence is pretty self explanatory but the more detail you get abt said child labor it's just more and more harrowing esp because we (smartphone users) are all implicated in it

placenta cream mentioned

inadvertently on a hungarian roll

she loves writing characters who forget to eat

american guy writing: the man was drinking german beer. the russian lady was holding a comically large flask of vodka. and the sexually liberated french man was letting his glass of cabernet sauvignon breathe

it's really cute that the author thinks that just because the sun is dying all the countries would successfully cooperate

finally starting this book which is (a little randomly) a feminist must-read in s. korea. the characters are named liked harry potter characters, not sure if it's the norwegian or 2nd wave feminism

"we are aiming at the dollars and not at men" is a really cool line. author quoting congressman thomas konop

i mean yes this is all sth i needed to hear but i feel like she hasn't addressed (yet) how most people who work retail jobs out of college before grad school are usually doing that to pay the bills, not because they lack vision or intention or whatever

my inability to DNF is torturing me. this book and honmono by seong hena (which i am praying to dear god does not get translated) are battling for worst book i've read this year

😫😫😫🥴🥴 (positive)

네가 내 여행이잖아 🥹🥹😍😍😍

거기, 불연속이 있었습니다. 최초로 그것을 분명하게 인식했지요. 내 안에, 끊어진 회로가 있다는 것을요. <우윤>

intriguing premise but the writing is kinda bad :( could've done so much more with the characters and being a vietnamese teenager in missouri during the early 2000s

just realized that the english title for this book is "capitalists must starve" after seeing my GR notifs. i thought it was a separate different book and was scrambling to find the korean version lol

SO excited to read this book! hope i can recommend it to everyone

i literally cannot take this book seriously 😭😭😭😭😭😭 i wish this was satire sigh

i'm just so pissed because in what world does an american, a third generation korean-american at that in the 2020s a) worry about traveling to south korea because they think it's dangerous b) have never had kimchi and also have no emotions about their detachment to their heritage c) identify as purely american to the point where they feel a welcoming relief upon seeing the american flag/hearing english during (cont.)

guys im really really hoping that this is gay 🤞🤞

"in a typically Moroccan mercurial shift" oh ok

kinda hate this so far but i'm gonna finish it so my criticism is true and valid. also korean audiobooks are so interesting they're definitely very korean... like polished and extra? i think like amtrak vs KAL is the only way i can describe it lol

young korean women writers who grew up with a twitter addiction i love you. we are family. such a fun cute read

lol 😭
