The Eyes Are the Best Part by Monika Kim

dark tense medium-paced

4.5

That ending was wild! Seeing Ji-won finally confront both George & Geoffrey was intense, honestly so satisfying to read. AND THAT T-WORD TWIST? BRUHHH I didn’t see that coming. 😵

But the more I thought about it, the more I realized how smart it was. The t-word didn't create her rage. The rage was already there from all the racism and sexism she'd been dealing with.

That ending! It left things wide open, there’s no clear answer, did she ever find peace? We’ll never know. I’m glad the author didn’t pull a ‘fix her’ moment at the end. Ji-won stayed messy, complex & unhinged self to the very end. ( ˶°ㅁ°) !!
