Actually really good book! It definitely is a bit slow to get into but once it starts, it gets the ball rolling! The whole idea is so unique and we see Ji-won truly unravel at the end of the book. You also start to realize as she tells her story that she isn’t as shy and submissive as she appears to be, especially once we realize how manipulative she can be. It was also great to see her mind tricking her and her delusions, almost tricking me at times and making me think i’m crazy. Overall, really good book and a fun short read! Finished in two days.
