A very sweet story! I can see why so many people recommend it. The illustrations were gorgeous and the lion dancing was very interesting to learn more about. While this is a romance, I liked that Val had impactful storylines involving her best friend and her family members, too. I was hoping it would be a bit more memorable but I enjoyed it for what it was.
