needlesnbooks's review against another edition
- Pace = Slow
- Characters = slow development and unlikable
- Trauma-driven motivation from the characters gave me the ick. The female MC growth was not believable to me. The male MC to driven by his trauma. Overall (ironically so, I think) this book lacked the balance between hope and darkness.
- I also was really turned off by the voice the narrator gave the female MC.
IDK this book wasn't for me. Gave me weird vibes.
Moderate: Physical abuse, Violence, Gore, and Hate crime

It was an interesting story with Chinese mythology and while I like the characters, I didn’t like how the main character had a major personality switch halfway through. I understand why it happened, it doesn’t mean it liked it.
