starrysea98 's review for:
If I Had Your Face
by Frances Cha
i can’t decide how i feel about this book. i like the characters well enough - ara’s spark when she shoved cherry’s head down the toilet bowl, all of kyuri’s chapters and miho’s revenge plot are definitely some of the more interesting stuff happening here. i thought wonna’s chapters were a waste of time bc she didn’t really contribute much to the overall storyline? why was she even included?
i did feel that the author wanted to touch on many different themes in the book: sexism, classism and cosmetic surgery being some of them. however, it felt like too little too much because the book is only so thick that a message is only arbitrarily touched upon before moving on to the next. it would have been better to pick a few key ideas and work more thoroughly on them.
that said, i quite liked the flow of the writing and i like that the characters are interesting enough to make this a worthwhile read. would definitely look out for more from this author!!
