An easy read to be honest. I ended up liking the side characters more than the FMC. The book is very feminist, with a strong headed female main character and her two softy bfs. Her bfs were quite adorable. I'm not sure where Zetian expressed her desire to rule the world in the whole book except that last chapter. And now they r supposedly in another planet that isn't theirs. Very interesting development.
