A review by alivaster
The Evening Hero by Marie Myung-Ok Lee

I really wanted to enjoy this book, especially because the premise sounded fascinating, but after the first bunch of chapters of the book, I found myself becoming less interested and the book wasn't able to keep my interest anymore. Ultimately, after reading it over the span of three months and only make it about halfway through, I DNFed the book for now and may go back and look into it again in the future. It just wasn't working for me.

I will say that it does have a lot of Korean history and information so people may find that fascinating! The character's jumping back and forth was just jarring to me in a way that took me out of the story, but that clearly wasn't the case for the majority of readers.

Thank you to the publisher, Simon and Schuster, and to NetGalley for the opportunity to read the ARC.
