Intricately Detailed With An Interesting Plot 

 
I am surrounded by many splendors, and yet I 
Am alone. 

Thoughts💡 
This was a beautiful story with a detailed world and exquisite details. I loved Xue, she was demi and an outcast so I felt immediately drawn to her. She had dreams and wishes but was extremely pragmatic about her circumstances and tragedy. 
I thought it was really interesting how the story was formatted. It was separated into parts with verses with interludes that were distinctly different.
