Reviews with content warning for Death - Lemon

An interesting exploration of grief, guilt, and the lasting impact of the death of a teenager on various people who knew her. I thought that the concept was intriguing but I expected it to be a somewhat different book, more of a murder mystery, but instead it focuses much more on the fallout of the murder rather than the murder itself. There are some lines that really pack a punch, and I particularly like the chapters where the narration is in the form of a one-sided conversation as you can get a real sense of character. I wouldn’t say that I really enjoyed this book as I just felt that something was missing from it, but I am glad that I read it nonetheless.

a story about grief, loss, and a murder without a person to pin it on. kwon beautifully illustrates the portraits of people who simply did what they could with what they had through something mysterious and horrible. in the end, the loss itself is big, and the empty space left behind is what they all fall into.
