Read it in one sitting and loved it. Very lovable rogues, and I really enjoyed the variety of different characters among the Liangshan bandits. I particularly love the way Lu Da talks, both towards other characters and her internal thoughts.

I really wanted to enjoy this, but found myself wishing it was more character-driven. I enjoyed all of the narrating characters and wished we had gotten more time with each of them and more character development. Despite being full of military conquests and battles, the pacing dragged for me and I hurried through it to finish. I liked the writing but it just wasn’t compelling enough to keep me captivated.
