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

dark mysterious medium-paced

3.0

Liked:
  • The setting and time period—I have never before read anything set in Korea in 1800
  • The mystery aspect
  • How the story highlighted some interesting women who lived/worked in male-dominated arenas
  • How some of the characters were actually real historical figures

Didn't like as much:
  • How some of the minor characters weren't developed enough to be very differentiable
  • How complex the plot sometimes got (or maybe that was just me?)
