Despite some of the dark content, I found the writing style easy to get through.

I enjoyed the moments that Lei founds strength in love and friendship. 

In spite of only getting a little glimpse of Lei’s family in the herb shop at the beginning, their bond and the coziness of Lei’s home came across well. 

I liked the cultures that the author set up. The world-building was fascinating. Not every character feels the same way about the situation as our main character does, so it makes them feel all the more realistic. 

The romance was cute! 

Sex work and same sex couples are stigmatized by some characters in the book.

Overall, this was a decent book. I wish some characters were more fleshed out but I guess that’s what the sequel is for. It was an interesting premise something’s lacking execution but overall a decent, if not hard, read.
