it gives gyeongseong creature vibes but set in shanghai, china but the common villain is japan in both stories. anyways, i don’t know the history during 1930s china so a bit annoying that i have to search up info. also a lot of chinese words aren’t translated which is still frustrating. rosalind’s character is so layered already it’s very interesting

i started this book last night and i’m pleasantly impressed. the writing is beautiful. but we get dual povs and chinese words which aren’t explicitly written or translated which is a tad bit confusing. nevertheless i love rosalind’s character and orion’s personality they’re more complex than simple black cat and golden retriever tropes.
