a bit too YA for me, underdeveloped world building, too insta lovey for my taste, but i admit i did cry.

Menarik dan menyenangkan! Novel ini termasuk ringan. Aku enjoy banget bacanya. Karakter Mina kuat sekali, penuh tekad dan berani (karakter perempuan yang kusuka). Shin dari awal kemunculan udah bikin klepek-klepek walau agak dingin. Namgi karakter ceria yang sering mencairkan suasana. Suka, suka, suka! Hampir semua karakter di sini layak dicintai hehehe. Plotnya medium pace. Minusnya, klimaks konfliknya kurang seru dan gak ada kejutan (twist) yang bikin greget.

This was good but it definitely felt a lot more middle grade than YA to me, but the story was interesting regardless! The side characters were aces and I loved Mina's connection with Shim Cheong so, so much!

This was a lovely retelling of a Korean myth. The pacing was really good, the realm of the Sea God was described in such gorgeous prose, and the story was one that left you satisfied. A good quick read and a sweet story.
