beautifulpaxielreads's review against another edition

It's been a long time since I started reading this and I just don't really feel like doing so anymore. Hardly any of the characters have much depth to them, the love triangle is unnecessary, and the plotting feels too episodic in nature. All the obstacles that Xingyin faces feel too easily overcome before she moves on to the next one.
