sorry but am i reading this correctly???? we are now saying "the large imperial ambitions of the powerful are equally justified for their survival as a smaller culture who fears being wiped out by demands of assimilation"???? is this what we are doing here Sue Lynn Tan??????? HEY WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON WITH THESE ASIAN FANTASIES

Extremely nonsensical. There's no emotional continuity with this woman, and she continues to be soooooooooooooooo flat you could use her as a leveler.

Its trope galore in this bitch, and I'm hating every single moment. So much is going on and yet nothing substantive has actually happened. Except for the tropes!!!!!!!

her grandfather LITERALLY brought a god's wrath down upon them because he could not let go of his granddaughter, after he was asked many times by the people who he was ruling to choose another heir because she could not fulfill her obligations and she is saying that THE MINISTERS would "doom[ed] [the people] under such tyranny"? ARE WE BEING SERIOUS??? ARE WE BEING SOOO SERIOUS

nothing is earned!!!!! nothing. im begging for some genuine actual build up and i don't think i'll get it

She continues to be extremely vapid and I'm not convinced Sue Lynn Tan did any research into Chinese mythology or xuanhuan storytelling at all.

I figured out that my problem is that I am expecting adult decisions and feelings from an adult fantasy book, but this is clearly a baby book for babies.

I am so tired of the cheap feminism in romantasy. Grow up!

The thinly disguised Puritanism in this book is sending me. Ofc the mc has never had a woman cause then he wouldn’t be uwu a good boy.

Why does everything have to be a quip? Can we not have a conversation without a quip? Begging, pleading, on my knees.
