nickclewley 's review for:

The Good Son by You-Jeong Jeong
4.0

“There are some people you just can’t love. Even when they smile, they make you want to pull on either side of that smile and rip their mouth off.”

Disturbing to the very end, without ever feeling exploitative or gratuitous. You-Jeong Jeong’s ability to stay in character, make me feel claustrophobic, take me to the edge of wanting to put the book down but keep me turning pages is incredible. This is really well done.
