Kat Cho doesn't really do anything new with the YA supernatural romance genre in terms of story, but what made this one unique and enjoyable to read was the setting in South Korea, the inclusion of Korean myths and legends for the supernatural side and a heavy Korean cultural influence. When I heard that fans of K-dramas would like it, I instantly wanted to read it because I have a huge soft spot for K-dramas, especially the supernatural romance ones (any Goblin fans out there?), and in that aspect I wasn't disappointed. The story itself isn't really anything special, but it isn't bad. The characters again weren't anything super special, but I still enjoyed following their journey. If you're tired of ‘typical' YA supernatural romance, then this probably won't float your boat, but if you still enjoy the usual helping of the genre and want to explore it in a fascinating culture not typical of the genre, I'd say give it a go!
