A review by annamickreads
The Silence of Bones by June Hur 허주은

3.0

3.5 for sure. I really liked the way this novel toyed with the idea of what makes a person a "good" person and the subjective nature of the truth. A historical fiction-and-crime-novel all in one, I thought that the setting was an interesting choice, especially reflecting on some of the other themes of religious persecution. I am not typically a fan of first person narratives, but in this instance I wasn't overly bothered by it.

Overall: I'm really curious to read Hur's upcoming novel now that I've read her debut!
