fell in love with the MC's, especially Hani! I loved the different POV's and I felt like the author did such a good job building tension and romance between the MC's. It was really cool to read about Korean folklore - I'm glad there weren't English translations or even a glossary since the story was so immersive and including those would have felt like the story was solely for people outside the culture. I'm so excited to read the next book in the series!
