One of my favorite Korean books is Almond by Horn Wyong and I had the chance to listen to her talk about Almond and she was in conversation with Ella Lee who wrote Bean Bag.

I also read almonds by one p son this one was okay not my favorite it's probably my least favorite that I've read from the country
I just felt like it was such a beautiful exploration of how we feel it's a really beautiful Coming of Age story with this other you know difficult element to it added to it and how he kind of navigates his emotions and his relationships I just thought it was beautiful
I really enjoyed it overall there were some decisions I think later on in the book that I wasn't quite as sure about but overall I definitely would recommend this book for anyone who is looking for a kind of coming-of-age Boyhood friendship Adventure that has some mental health themes and is shown from a different culture's perspective
i actually borrowed this quite a few months ago and read the first chapter and really liked it and then realized i had to take it back to the library the next day so didn't finish it
I have officially finished my first book of my 24-hour readathon, Almond by Wian, and I absolutely loved it. Yes, this is exactly what I was expecting.
for a book in which we follow a character where we never get to really understand or see his emotions this book is so full of emotion
