The Color of Earth by Kim Dong Hwa
4.0
Sweet, thoughtful coming of age story. The values are a bit dated and the Korean expectations of what women should be is prominent.
Also since the main character is a young girl growing up and learning about her body and the world around her and her place in it, I find it a bit strange that the book is written by a man. I think the whole event is rather romanticised due to the authors distance from the subject matter.
