This book was so good. I laughed, I cried. I finished it within a week. If you really enjoy kdramas, supernatural stories, murder mystery, steamy romance, then you’ll enjoy this. It is set in the 1990s in South Korea. The main characters are so fun and lovable. They haven’t announced the next book yet, but it seems like there will be a series? This book did end with most of my questions resolved, didn’t end on a major cliff hanger, so it could be read as a standalone. But I still have a few questions and would love to see the characters again in a second book.

I liked the mythology but was dragged down by slow moving plot, not caring about either main character, out of place language, etc …

I would pay to watch this as a K drama. I will definitely be picking up book 2, because I need Seokga to find Hani.
