Perfection 

I really liked this book!
The mid point plot point completely destroyed me emotionally, but I agree it was necessary from a character development standpoint. Still can’t get over my man Lan tho:(
At times it dragged a bit, but overall I found it very engaging and well written. Excited for the second one:)

finished reading in two days
Lan is murdered and Shea came back and is Weather Man. Story about family, deep feuds, natural resources, and honor. Very clearly shows inequalities in our own society with stone eyes and ebukeki (?) being second class citizens bc they cant handle jade.
