A review by jo_books
The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang

adventurous challenging dark emotional tense

4.5

Overall, I really enjoyed this book, however, I feel like the first half of the book was entirely different from the second. The writing was great and kept me interested, but the second half of the book got so incredibly dark, it made it harder to want to continue. The fact that the horrible aspects of this book are based off historical events makes it even more difficult.
