Honestly I really enjoyed this book. I just wished that there was more to the ending as it felt sort of rushed in the last 50 or so pages as the plot moved slowly throughout the beginning of the book, but i’m happy they finally got out of that hellhole and they no longer have Howard or Virgil trying to shove their tongues down their throats.

I don’t even know where to start with this book other than the fact I felt every form of emotion imaginable whilst reading it. The heartache and tears that came with it were completely worth it and I’m grateful this book gave me a little understanding of what the women in Korea faced during Japan’s Colonisation and how the Haenyeo women of Jeju did their best to provide for themselves and everyone in their household.

I highly recommend this book and I hope people understand that following anger blindly without knowing the whole truth is causes fatal misunderstandings, which is what caused Yoonseok and Mi-ja to lose such a beloved friendship and sisterhood.
However they still held each other close to their hearts till the end even though they weren’t honest with one another.

I would have finished this earlier but I didn't find this to be a compelling read as the majority but it was just giving me nothing?????? like if unreading this was an option I would choose it so quick also the boys were just a bunch of psychos for no reason at all like go and get a hobby you weirdos.
