This seems to be a very well written novel. I know next to nothing about Korean culture do right away reading about the customs of that country captured my interest. I am also caught up in Willow's story, her expectations are very high and her desire to Lear and study is very strong. I am worried that all her dreams will be crushed when she finally arrives in her new land. I am fully invested in this story and would love very much to finish reading and review it.
