The Kinship of Secrets by Eugenia Kim
4.0
The Kinship of Secrets is a soul-stirring novel which makes one realise the importance of family. This book is based on the lives of two sisters raised in different parts of the world, one raised in the USA and another in South Korea.

Alternating between the point of views of both the sisters, Kim balances the narration beautifully. And never did I think, at any point, that there was a discrepancy in the story. Another matter of intrigue was how the relationship between the members of the family was not only tied but strengthened due to the secrets they held. This family was bound by ‘secrets’, and while during the end I had my doubts about one sister telling the other her truth, I understood why she decided not to confess. It all made sense to me.
