Review:
//~You must be able to laugh at things, even at the sad scary stuff sometimes..///
Wicked Fox by Kat Cho is much more than just a novel from kworld, it is a mixture of fantasy and folklore. Gu Miyoung is an 18 year old half human, half gumiho (fox spirit) trying to live a life like an ordinary human under the strict supervision of her mother, Yena. But when there’s superpowers involved, there will be slip-ups. After every such slip-ups, they move to a new city with a new identity.
On her first day in Seoul, Miyoung makes a huge mistake, a mistake that could cost her, her own life, she reveals her true identity in front of a human. While Miyoung was saving this human boy from a goblin, she loses her fox bead. Now, Miyoung must find a way to put the fox bead back inside her, or else she will endanger not only her own life, but of the human boy she saved. When fate strings those two strangers, a romance sparks between a supernatural creature and a human.
The writing style is mesmerizing and engaging. The plot twists gave me chills. Kat Cho has beautifully portrayed Miyoung’s struggles to retain her human side while living a life devouring the energy of human. The characters are well developed, Yena, especially was a wonderful character. This book is an emotional roller-coaster. Can’t wait to read the sequel of this both, Vicious Spirits.
