The book was inspired by a lot of real Chinese history and I loved feeling like I was learning while I read this amazing story. It inspired me to learn some more about real history in that region.

“For eighteen years, my unibrow has saved me from being sold into a painful, terrifying death.
Today is the day I'm releasing it from its gracious service.”
Two words: Female Rage
Fast paced, short chapters, captivating.
I need more love triangles that are actual love triangles in media!!! Pleassssse! The loved they shared was beautiful.
The epilogue had me shook!
