I just couldn’t get into it. The characters didn’t interest me, and nothing was moving fast enough.

Too much language. Plot was slow and dragging. Didn’t appreciate the real world political agenda.

I LOVED THIS BOOK, but what was that ending!?! I need more Ning'er and Cheng Yun . (Why does this have to be a standalone???) Also, it's a retelling of Les Miserables, so I've got to read that and find connections (my favorite part of retellings!).

I can’t say for sure why I haven’t been able to get in to this book, but I have been trying to read it for over a month and I’m going to call it quits for now.
I think I’ll come back to it some day but I don’t want to leave it sitting in progress, taunting me.
