Water Moon by Samantha Sotto Yambao

adventurous dark mysterious reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Plot
• Strong character development? Yes

4.0

You open the door, intending to walk into a popular Tokyo ramen shop and instead find yourself in world where nothing is as it seems: a pawnshop that trades in regrets, a girl with too many secrets, and a mystery just dying to be unraveled. Sotto Yambao's characters are deep and wanting, her worlds pushing the edge of imagination, and her story a beautiful reminder of the power of choice. If every restaurant door doesn't tempt me with an alternate world from now on, I'm going to be severely disappointed.
