A remarkably easy read filled with advernture, love, loss, and self-discovery. A story of a young girl wanting women to have the right to choose who they love, how they live and die, and allowing herself and her peers to experience that.

Grief amd loss paired with strength, love and friendship. Effectively told through the eyes of a brave 16-year old girl.

"Don't chase fate. Let fate chase you."

If you like Spirited Away, then you'll love this delve into Korean folklore and a kingdom under the sea, with a diverse cast of characters, who will find their way to your heart.

I don't know the story this retelling is based off of, but this book was beautiful. I loved the artistic and soft descriptions, they felt so wonderful to get wrapped in. I am not normally a plot driven reader, but this had the plot and the vibes. It reminded me of a video game I love called Gris as the main character blindly discovers herself and the world around her.
