wiebke2 's review for:

If I Had Your Face by Frances Cha
3.75

Such an interesting read on Korean society (with a focus on beauty standards, sexism, misogyny, class system etc) but also it focuses on female friendships in a society that continuously denies them the same chances as men. These flawed and disadvantaged women help each other in the best way they can within their circle of influence. I would have preferred though to read more of Sujin instead of Wonna who seemed quite removed in terms of story telling / character development from the other women. Also I wished it would have been longer because it could only touch so much on all those extensive society topics in 280+ pages, a little more depth and finished story lines would have been nice.
