I have binge read all of these graphic novels (up til #4) in one night and if I needed to give one word that describes my feelings toward this series... OBSESSED I am absolutely OBSESSED. As a bisexual girl seeing a character that I can relate to this much is amazing. Thank you!
I really wanted to like this book, but it just did not provoke any emotions for me. I just wasn't invested. I did like the twists and turns, but I need to have some sort of connection to the characters. The main character told you that she was changing, but I honestly did not see her actions change that much, she always already seemed deviant and “different”.
It is a 5/5✨ for me.
I just need to have my emotional support water bottle for my reread, because damn I cried a lot at the end
When I tell you I am OBSESSED with this series. 5 stars in a row is unheard of, OMG. I am just obsessed.
The character growth is amazing and the relationships between the characters are so beautifully thought out.
And then the plot, how does miss Jennifer think of this. I am now too obsessed with the Fibonacci spiral.
I am going to binge the last book now
I liked this more than I expected. With every story my opinion grew more and more positive and I believe it is because you get to see many faces of Gerald in these short stories. Ofcourse it didn't go past me that these stories seemed inspired by other popular works, which for me made it more interesting. I will definitely read the next book.
A novella that shows they experiences of being a woman an korea through the generations and ages. This story packs a punch with it honesty but also with supporting her story with statistics. You can see the way women are bound to korean tradition, but also the universal harrassment women face all over the world.
Great Joker story. I really liked the story was told through a thug who was riding with joker and wants to find out how the joker ‘is not crazy'. The ending where he realized that the joker is in fact not crazy but just plain evil led by his fluctuating emotions I loved.
I loved all the different stories and how it comes back to the fact that we can get inspiration from a book, a gift, or a situation, but we ourselves have to connect the dots. Very cosy feel good novel for everyone.
Sometimes you read a book, and you just realise the author had to be a writer. Because how could you live with such beautiful prose inside you and not write them down. The further I got into the book, the more I came to connect to and understand the characters. At the same time, the characters come to understand more about themselves and each other, and there is a connection in this. Every Sentence is quotable and without knowing who said it, you can make an educated guess.
Amazingly written. I loved the historical aspects and old stories used to make this story. Felt like a whole story instead of a novella, I got so much from it.
At first it was a fun concept and very interesting to read the authors view on this post apacolyptic era with only children, but later on it became too longwinding, highly detailed and I became less and less interested in what would happen.
Do I have a bias for books about women in STEM yes. Was this the best book ever, no. But i was just allong for the ride. I'm still not totally n board with Teo because of his elitism in the first part of the book. But I loved the girls and topics.
I do agree with people that this book follows the same formula (ha science):
- He is soo BIGGGG and TALLL
- She is soooo smollll and tiny
- There will be betrayal
- and some smaller things
But even with all of that, it also means that if you like one book, you are likely to like the other.
So the story I liked, and the character aren't total copies of the love hypothesis. I know we were told why there was no communication (see earlier posts on this book) but still, use words. Overall, I liked the book and the history lessons about Marie Curie.
3.5 or a 4 star Im not sure yet.
This is jkfgjfdl... Idk how to describe it, I am not really a romance reader but this book man. I basically finished this in one day, because I don't have any self-control and because this book read like crack. It did have some clichés, but like I don't care, cause this romance sjdhfkjldshf. This was my very comprehensive review.
I liked this book for the topics that were discussed and the intergenerational storytelling. The first third of the book was a little slow and I wished we cod have gotten even deeper into certain topics.
