Ji-Won is tired of being fetishized for being Korean. She’s tired of gross men taking advantage of her, of her mother, of women in general. She’s angry at her father for abandoning his family. She’s worried for her younger sister. She’s wary of her new friend, Geoffrey, and she’s suspicious of her mother’s new boyfriend, George. She’s also recently developed a taste and a hunger for eyeballs. Specifically blue eyes. 
This book is dark and badass and cathartic and personally I’m a fan of the way Ji-Won handles the racist, misogynistic men around her. 👀
