buffyreads 's review for:
I Married Wonjin
by Regine Abel
Highlights:
I loved Wonjin in the 'I married a minotaur' book so I ran to KU to read this as soon as it was published! Wonjin falls in love at first sight while Lara is more in love with the science of it all and oblivious to his feelings.
There were some sweet moments between them that I liked and I enjoyed a new type of dynamic in this series.
Lowlights:
I didn't like how Lara was made to feel guilty at the beginning for not understanding Wonjin when he was not being direct with his feelings in a way she would understand. This book being a novella really took the wind out of the romances sails. Instead of the growth of romance we usually get through communication and understanding, I feel like this story is a bit hollow in comparison. There is a lot of telling and not showing through time-skips and exposition. I feel like there needed to be more depth to the relationship whether through conflict or through more/better characterization of Lara.
Horn Level: 3/5
