muốn rate lại Tro tàn sắc đỏ vì cuốn đó thực sự buồn ngủ (ngẫm lại mình cũng không thích nó đến vậy) và cũng vì cuốn này thấy hay hơn rất nhiều, nhưng lười quá
TWs: Ableism, confinement, emotional abuse, death, grief
2.75 rounded up; It had such a great start to build up the tension between Oghi and how his life spirals downward after the car accident that kills his wife. Then the ending... I understand the message but it wasn't as strong as the beginning and it feels abrupt, unsatisfactory, and so frustrating!!
In the beginning, I felt bad for Oghi and how the mother-in-law was treating him, which was understandable, considering he as the driver was alive, and the wife had passed away. But as the history behind the characters unravels, it turns into a lot of hatred and frustration with all of them. Simply, they're all crazy lol Oghi especially. Such a selfish and self-centered human who feels that no one cares about him and that life is just moving without him, despite his achievements. Possibly intentional, where Oghi is the only character that is actually named.
Major props to the designer, that hole getting bigger each chapter is so crazy and terrifying. A visual so simple, yet impactful and unnerving!! It wasn't in the Korean book, so great addition!!
not me staying up at 2 am thinking this book would keep getting better..... call the circus they missed a clown.
cw: death, fatphobic comments, ableism and ablest terminology.
i was promised a eerie horror/thriller and what i got was a weirdly paced literary trying to be mysterious. i love short books but damn i wish this was longer and went in depth in the “thriller-y” aspects. i would continue ranting but i'm tired and want to be free from this book lmao.
honestly if you're intrigued by this pick it up, you might like it. but it just wasn't for me.
Rating: 1.71 leaves out of 5-Characters: 2/5 -Cover: 2/5-Story: 1.5/5-Writing: 4/5Genre: Horror, Mystery, Thriller-Horror: 1.5/5-Mystery: 1/5 -Thriller: 0/5Type: EbookWorth?: NoHated Disliked Meh It Was Okay Liked Loved FavoritedI wouldn't read this unless you like to waste time. Oghi is a man who is severely disabled after a wreck and the whole time you see him deal with that and his mother. The beginning started off so strong and right after it just went to the birds. You realize Oghi is shit. The most interesting thing about this book is the hole.
