I can't believe I'm saying this but I'm loving this book. It is so much deeper than I thought. This might be a 5-star read for me when I'm done.

This book is a lot darker and depressing than I thought it was going to be, and it is definitely not romantasy. It is dark, Chinese-inspired fantasy. And listening to all this suffering is exhausting and kind of a turn off. I'm still going to finish it, though.
