I definitely took my time with this debut novel, but I found that even though I took forever to read it, I am glad to have taken my time to soak in what I read. This story follows Jade and JungHo, and although we don’t get to see them flourishing together, we are taken on a journey that learns the hardships they’ve gone through, experienced, and then had to overcome. And learning about inyeon - I really liked picking up on those connections between the characters throughout the many parts of this book. Thank you, Libby, for putting this book on my radar 💜
