A review by brandypainter
The Forest of Stolen Girls by June Hur

5.0

This was engaging and near impossible to put down. I read it in one sitting. It's exactly the sort of mystery I enjoy the most, one that focuses on character development. It is also a sister story, which is also a favorite of mine. I loved the dynamic between the sisters, and the development of their relationship over the course of the novel. The 14th century Korean setting is fascinating. I would read more books about these characters and this village for sure. By the end, I cared about all of them and wanted to stay a little longer. I will definitely be looking at more of Hur's books now.
