    Disappointing :(
  

*by M***E on Reviewed in the United States on July 10, 2019*

1.5 StarsI expected a lot from this book. Sadly I only got halfway through before I stopped. I really disliked the main character, Min. She lied and tricked and cheated her way into EVERYTHING. She completely abused her powers. She was did some other things that were disgusting too (SPOILER: she literally used her power to make herself look like a random guy who died to save her. then she stole his identity and led his friends to believe he was alive, when he was actually dead. so all his friends thought she was him. END SPOILER). Min was also unrealistic. She had only been allowed to use her powers a few times at home, and suddenly she can be using it almost constantly without getting tired? And lastly, she was just pretty dumb. A lot of decisions she made frustrated me so much. Like, turning into a table (in I think chapter one) in front of an authority dude who is AGAINST FOXES? I was wowed by her lack of discernment and compassion. Was she seriously willing to get her whole family into huge trouble just so she could... eavesdrop? Overall, Min was such a repulsive main character that I couldn't have kept reading. The plot wasn't very interesting anyway.

    It was decent. Good, in fact
  

*by F***Y on Reviewed in the United States on February 9, 2019*

It was decent. Good, in fact. It just didn't really leave me really wanting more. I mean, I want to know what happens next, but not that urgent. The author is great with details, but maybe a little too much? Do we really have to know that Min DROPPED her chop 'o sticks, PICK the up, and bonk her head? Wouldn't it be easier to say 'I took some time to get my utensils' or something? Do we really need to know at all? Can we skip the conversation in the first place? The conversation was interesting enough, but I don't think we need THAT much information. For like, 75% of the book, Min is posing as a dead soldier still thought alive, for NO reason!! 'You sacrificed your life for me! I help you!' and the ghost of the dead soldier is like 'Ok! If you fail…I HAUGHT YOU FOREVER. MUAHAHA!' Ehm. Ok…(…(……)……)……(………(…………)…(………)…)… -_-I understand that Min was on the battle cruiser the Pale Lightining for a long time, but do we actually have to hear her talk about scrubbing toilets so precisely for like 10% of the book? I little bit easier on the side stuff and more on the juicy steak you know! I don't know why the ghosts didn't savagely attack Min, Hanuel, and the goblin (I can't remember her name! It's on the tip of my tongue, but I can't remember!). Maybe because of Jun is with them? Maybe the ghosts sense something different? Maybe there is an aura that's different about Min than others? Will there be answers? Why am I so confused? I don't…know?(??(??(??)????)?)??(????)I loved the author's craft, however. It's a perfect blend of sci-fi, Korean mythology, and a young child's struggle against the world of the unknown. I would reccomend it, but it's sometimes reeeeeeeeeeeeeally slow, while such at times, it goes veeery quickly. It all comes together and it's all a happy ending. Meow!Peace out, and wear your seatbelt!-SeatbeltBoi123Yeet

    Korean mythology in space - enchanting middle grade read
  

*by T***F on Reviewed in the United States on June 3, 2019*

DRAGON PEARL by Yoon Ha Lee is one of the new books on the Rick Riordan Presents imprint, but I’m here to tell you that even if you haven’t read or liked a single Rick Riordan book, you need to get your hands on this one when it releases.Now, the Rick Riordan name is strong and definitely conjures up some associations. I say this with all love, as I generally fill out his name under ‘favorite author’ when forced to choose. But, back to those associations. Generally, you’ll think of kids who are demigods that get prophecies of doom and go on quests to save the world, showering you in fun mythology of varying backgrounds all along the way. For some people, this isn’t interesting. I get it, we all have our genres. DRAGON PEARL is NOT this.The blurb I remember seeing for DRAGON PEARL was “space opera meets Korean mythology.” This encapsulates the book pretty perfectly. DRAGON PEARL is not the contemporary world meets ancient mythology - DRAGON PEARL is an entire Thousand Worlds crafted lovingly out of Korean mythological themes. The mythology is never othered in this compelling story. Rather, it is the foundation and lifeblood for the world and characters. I am not Korean and have no prior knowledge of Korean mythology (other than some commonalities that it has to other East Asian ideas, of course). Despite this, I found myself immersed seamlessly in this world.Thirteen-year-old Min comes from a long line of fox spirits, but her family avoids showing their identity to be supernatural because of prejudices against foxes. She has always lived at home on her impoverished, world of Jinju, but when word comes that her brother Jun is accused of deserting the Space Forces to search for the Dragon Pearl, Min sets off to find her brother and clear his name. Through the twists and turns of this adventure, she will find herself as well.The story is exciting from the start, and even the slower information-gathering sections of the book are still tense with the pressure of dangerous secrets. The ending was unexpected and sets up nicely for what I hope will be a series of stories, but even if this is the end, I’m very happy.Something DRAGON PEARL does well that I appreciate is that it sets up gender variance as an accepted fact of life. Characters wear pronoun pins that tell our protagonist how to refer to them, and that’s all we need. The ideas of prejudice and racism are also touched on in the tension between supernaturals (such as foxes, dragons, tigers, ghosts, and goblins) and humans. Ultimately, Min shows that ALL should be accepted and respected.
