she's so kind and sweet and gentle and patient with me and she does these little gestures to feel closer to me, and she's so witty and clever and she treats me with so much care... i think i would literally move mountains for this woman

diary of a murderer / kim young ha

7.5/10

i love short story collections and kim young ha does a SPECTACULAR job of delving into complex human emotions without romanticizing them and simply showing them as they are — definitely recommend

the perfect marriage / jeneva rose

6.5/10

a well paced murder mystery with well fleshed out and morally grey characters, main criticism is that the ending is very messy/rushed and leaves too many loose ends (+ doesn't really make sense in context?)

please take care of mom / kyung-sook shin

8.5/10

absolutely heart wrenching read and an eye opening look at how we never truly know our loved ones. only rating it lower because it made me so sad i couldn't get through it at times
