“Pachinko” by Min Jin Lee~Book Review

Join me this week as I discuss this tragic but beautiful family saga set in Japan.

Just finished reading. I see myself in NOA, however my favorite character is Mozasu; he had “I’ll do it my way” attitude that I appreciated. I wonder if Hansu paid those boys to harass Sunja so that he could “rescue” her?

[@BoundinProse]

Oo! I hadn’t thought of that! I kinda saw myself in Noa as well. The ending of his part was devastating. Thanks for joining me!

Thank you for the great review. I think my main concern would be, did they portray the minister and/or Christianity as a bad thing? That sort of attitude is easy to come through in those types of stories.

[@BoundinProse]

Oh absolutely! I felt the Christians were portrayed well even though the main character doesn’t become one. Thanks for tuning in again!

Good to know, thanks. I don't generally like family dramas (I have too much of my own!) but this sounds even more intriguing now. Thanks for the great discussion/review. Love your beautiful kitty, too! @@BoundinProse
