This was a slow-paced book with a diverse group of characters united by one thing — their interest in pottery. Jungmin’s burnout and isolation felt very real, and it was heartwarming to witness her finding a community and coming to terms with difficult relationships in her past. I also appreciated that all the people who found community at the Soyo workshop were also going through their own challenges. It was inspiring to see them all work through their difficulties and come out stronger at the end of the book. Overall, I really enjoyed this read!
