The daughter of the Moon Goddess grew up sheltered but happy on the moon. Her life is uprooted as she is forced to leave to the Celestial Kingdom. You get to go with her on her journey has she meets odd characters, learns skills and magic, and becomes a more powerful immortal. The characters are good, their motivations strong. The setting is perfect for a dramatic yet classic adventure story.
I am so stoked I own the sequel (thanks, daily deals!l

I really didn't care for any of the main characters (Shuxiao is a real one, though. I want more of her, please). The sorta-kinda rebound love "triangle" almost made me DNF (specifically the
I'll read the sequel for the worldbuilding, but I'm not rushing into it.

Daughter of the Moon Goddess had everything I could want in a book: A fierce female main character, lyrical descriptions and world building, a plot twist I didnāt see coming, magic, and friendship (Shuxiao youāre a real one for sure), and dragonsā¦duhš! It also had some romance that didnāt overpower the enjoyable adventures throughout Highly recommend!! š
