challenging dark emotional informative inspiring sad fast-paced

5.0

Reading this book was depressing and shocking. Felt like my home country was full of incels and  homophobes that ruled the nation. At this point, it’s harder to say whether South Korea or Texas/Florida is more oppressive. It also further confirmed to me the damage done by Japanese colonialism and US imperialism. Reading this book made me feel ashamed to call myself Korean. It also helped make a lot more sense of my childhood.
