When sixteen-year old, Jae Hwa, is uprooted from her home in L.A. to Korea, she thought her biggest problem would be fitting in with her classmates and dealing with her dismissive grandfather. But she was wrong. A Korean demi-god, Haemosu, has been stealing the soul of the oldest daughter of each generation in her family for centuries. And she’s next.

ReplyDeleteThe title reminds me of a cage. I love the pretty cover.
ReplyDeleteWhen I first saw it, I read 'Guild' and the first guild I thought of was Sovereign. It's a kind of inside thing between me and a couple of friends though.
ReplyDeletereminds me of a cage
ReplyDeleteReminds me of a gold & riches.
ReplyDeleteWhat comes to mind is a cage made of gold, a palace run by an evil king. Basically, someone living in luxury but unable to be happy or do what they want most.

ReplyDeleteThe title reminds me of metal.
ReplyDeleteWhen I think of gilded I think of something shiny :)
ReplyDeleteHorses lol I don't know!
ReplyDeleteThe title reminds me of the Gilded Age (period approximately spanning the final three decades of the 19th century in the U.S.), the sentimental ballad "A Bird in a Gilded Cage," and gilding the lily.
ReplyDeleteI didn't even know what Gilded meant until I googled it after reading another book, but now it just reminds me of crowns and castles!
