HTML:<b>"Violent, smart, gruesome and wildly original, this novel pulls readers into a horrific world of murder and cannibalism while also critiquing misogyny, exploring Asian fetishization and stereotypes, sharing what it's like to navigate two cultures and telling a touching story of a family in turmoil." —<i>New York Times Book Review</i><br /> <i>Crying in H-Mart</i> meets <i>My Sister, the Serial Killer</i> in this brilliantly subversive, feminist psychological horror novel about the making of a female serial killer from a Korean-American perspective.</b><br /> Ji-won's life tumbles into disarray in the wake of her Appa's extramarital affair and subsequent departure. Her mother, distraught. Her younger sister, hurt and confused. Her college freshman grades, failing. Her dreams, horrifying . . . yet enticing.<br /> In them, Ji-won walks through bloody rooms full of eyes. Succulent blue eyes. Mouthwatering blue eyes. Eyes the same shape and shade as George's, who is Umma's obnoxious new boyfriend. He brags about his puffed-up consulting job, ogles Asian waitresses while dining out, and acts condescendingly toward Ji-won and her sister, as if he deserves all of Umma's fawning adoration. But George doesn't deserve anything from her family. Ji-won will make sure of that.<br /> No matter how many victims accumulate around her campus or how many people she must deceive and manipulate, Ji-won's hunger and her rage deserve to be sated.<br /> <b>"I was enticed from the first line and entertained throughout. <i>The Eyes Are the Best Part</i> is a quirky, engaging read."—Oyinkan Brainthwaite, author of <i>My Sister, the Serial Killer</i></b>.
