I was given an ebook arc of this by NetGalley so thank you to them for the early access.
We follow Ji-Won during a chaotic time in her life and down through her subsequent spiral where she becomes fixated on the consumption of eyes.
I found the beginning to take a few chapters to get into, but after that it was pretty nonstop and hard to put down. The overall message of the novel was compelling and despite the horrible actions of our main character it was hard to not root for her.
