Iron Widow by Xiran Jay Zhao
4.0
adventurous dark inspiring tense fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

sadly not as good as i expected but still pretty good! the beginnign i loved the MOST - the pacing, the action, the writing even (my favourite quote abt how yizhi talks words like snowfall etc). i was very surprised with how fast it was going and then got used to it only for the middle to be a part where barely anything happens (yet stuff was happening in every chapter, very weird mix). i loved the trouple! also zetian is a great character, i love how impulsive she is and how quickly she changes her mind about things.   

 
i really wish there was more hints about hunduns. i vaguely guessed what was happening but i think it could have been set up slightly nicer!
