I really loved how this book just immediately jumps into the story and that the chapters were short to match the pacing. I will say at times I was confused as to how much time was passing exactly. I think the characters were okay and the main character Ji-won was likable. This story wasn't horror in the scary sense, but it did have some fun scenes with eyes. I found myself relating a lot to what Ji-won was going through and I think that added to the overall experience. For a debut novel I thought this was really good and I'm excited to see where Monika Kim goes next!
