When My Name Was Keoko. Like? Dislike?

I really enjoyed When My Name Was Keoko, at the beginning I imagined myself boring myself to death with the book (no offense :], but really? I enjoyed this book. I liked how the author could write and create realistic problems and events, like how Tae-yul had to train in the army, or how Uncle's still gone in the ending. The book was descriptive and imaginative. I enjoyed how the author was tricking us into thinking that Tae-yul was really dead, also how Abuji and Mrs. Ahn was both in the resistance. That was really a shock. Overall, the book was great, it was captivating, and I really liked it.

Visualizing "Keoko" ;)

While I reading the novel, I visualzing the neighboorhood accountant, I saw people cheering and singing. A whole crowd screaming their heads off, celebrating the fact the Korea was finally free from the Japanese. I saw people crying and going wild, just like a riot.

5 Questions About Keoko

1. Will Tae-yul bomb one of the Japanese plane?

2. Will Tae-yul die as a kamakaze?

3. What else will Abuji do to help Tae-yul?

4. Will Tae-yul be in jail or persecuted?

5. Where exactly is Uncle or is he dead?

The Best Book I've EVER read! :)



The best novel I've ever read has to be The Darkest Powers Trilogy by Kelley Armstrong, it would win hands down. However, I only get to select one novel and it has to be The Reckoning, the third book in the series. It's amazing! It has everything a great novel needs: suspense, an awesome plot, diverse characters, an understandable conflict, and a solution to it. It got me hooked the very first moment I started reading. The story is about a science group called the Edison Group, who were messing and experimenting on children so they would have supernatural abilities but without having to put you're life on the line. Abilities like necromancy, witchcraft, shape-shifting, etc, were planted into the DNAs of those children. The children who were modified starting blooming while they were teenagers, and before that they had no clue they were experimented on. Their abilities would grow and started appearing to them which made them and people around them think they were crazy, and so they were sent to a group home. Where the Edison Group was in control monitoring them, seeing if they could control their abilities or if they would just lost it. That's when the Edison Group comes in and exterminates the failed subjects. Little did they know, they children soon figured out what the experiments were about and how they were just wrong, so they plotted against the group... Such a well-written and clearly thought out story, I just love the way the author would bring up mysteries in parts of the book where it would make you go like “OH MY GOD"! 10/10. I love every little detail and EVERYTHING about this book! WONDERFUL NOVEL!
