"My sheer golden pants sway with every step, and the braided metallic gold top hugging my chest leaves little to the imagination"

Her dress is still wet hours after the ceremony?

I am kind of forcing myself to read it right now..

The atmosphere and the writing is so heavy... But i think it matches the gothic elements.

"Sometimes you come across people who have been searching for each other all their lives. As two enemies fated to despise each other-as two lost souls searching for theur home."

"A person is a person, just as a flower is a flower. Scholars rank one another, people and flowers, prizing the plum blossom over the common wildflowers, but to me, i love all flowers. They all bring delight. They are all beautififul."

Favourite quotes from what ive read so far.
"Is the spring not beautiful, even though it is fleeting and soon forgotten?"

Omg no words. I am still dreading the rest of the book but for now my opinions are still the same as before, it is a wonderful book. Maybe its not for everyone as it is quite slow, each chapter is diving in the characters' thoughts and personally i love it as i can see the progression, i can feel the conflicting feelings, and the fears of the characters.

Favourite quote by now
" There were too many rules a woman had to live by. Too many strings attached to her-her mind, her heart, her very soul-for ever pulling and pulling at her. It was all horribly unfair." even though it is fiction, women living in this era could feel this quote in their very soul. Women are always suffering in one way or another and that havent change yet.

It is my first time reading a book by this author and honestly i am hooked. Im both scared and excited to continue because i am really enjoying it and i dont want it to end up as another disappointment or in my dnf serie. The characters are wonderfully written, each having different quirks and they are not here just for the sake of making the fmc/mmc better. I cant wait to continue reading.
