Wicked Fox by Kat Cho is a unique YA fantasy, that takes root and heart in Korean folklore, and is rich in culture and swoon-worthy romance (much like those found in a K-drama).
In the pace of the story, we follow two narrators, Jihoon, a boy who was simply at the wrong place at the wrong time, and Miyoung, a mythical creature known as a nine-tailed fox. Their fates collide, when Miyoung saves Jihoon, and promptly looses her soul. Without it, she will die. Miyoung has until the next full mooon, to save her soul.
But unlike most YA novels, Miyoung would rather drop dead than work Jihoon, even if that promise could truly come to fruition. Yet, sparks begin to fly between the duo and Miyoung is forced to make a decision, a long life or a life with her love.
Wicked Fox is perfect for fans of the dramatics, or anyone who is looking for a fantasy that doesn't rely on the setting of medieval Europe.
