A review by kelseybanerjee
Phoenix Chosen by Ekaterine Xia

5.0

Ekaterine has woven a suburb romantic fantasy infused with the ancient Chinese cultural aesthetic. Her writing style is not only precise, but imaginative and elegant. Her characters are willful and active, her plot is fascinating (although I wish it was drawn out more), and the romance is sweltering hot. Really though. I had nostalgia for all the historical Korean dramas I watched in college - like Faith and Queen Seondeuk.

She masterfully pens a world full of magic, history, and romance. This is a must-read if you like historical/fantasy romances.

Seriously. Just read it. Now.
