Phoenix Extravagant | Yoon Ha Lee

Pickpick

I was hesitant to read this because of how dark the last Yoon Ha Lee book I read was, but I‘m glad I did because I loved it. The paint magic system was alarming and awesome, and the unexpected connections were interesting throughout. Loved the tie-ins with Korean folklore and the non-binary rep. I wish things with Hawk had been a little more developed. #LGBTQ #Korean #Art #Magic I read this for @PuddleJumper ‘s #roll100

Second attempt at this #Korean dystopia (in translation). A terrible virus has hit the world...

This book is why I love international books. They‘re always so different from what is traditionally published here in America and I find that so refreshing.

Overall, I found this novel to be beautiful and thought provoking! If you‘re looking to try something new and a bit different, pick up this book!

Great commuter book. I am falling in love with every page. It‘s is not serious read, but it‘s heart felt and full of teenage angst. Beautiful blending of worlds and even random small characters. Haven‘t finished it but I really enjoy this author. #ya #immigration #ambw #interracial #Korean #Jamaican #sciencevsphilosohy #summerread

I am hooked to this book.

It‘s my day off and I‘m on the edge of maybe getting a cold and the best cure for a cold is JOOK. Korean rice porridge to the rescue.
