justinlife 's review for:

Love in the Big City by Sang Young Park
4.0
emotional informative reflective sad slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I really like this book. I will say the audiobook really helped with it. In Park's book, we get glimpses of what being queer is like in South Korea. We get these snippets of a life and it's beautiful. The characters are fully realized regardless of how irritating they are and it was fun to read this facsimile of his experiences.
