White Mulberry by Rosa Kwon Easton
3.0
challenging informative inspiring slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

While I found the author’s writing style engaging and enjoyable, I struggled to connect with the main character, Miyoung, on a deeper level. 

I am by no means an expert of Japanese history, but some historical details, such as the mention of high-speed trains, left me questioning their accuracy in the context of 1930s Japan.

I also feel unsatisfied with the story’s abrupt ending, which left me with more unresolved questions.
