The Last Dragon of the East by Katrina Kwan

4.25

If you’re a fan of Asian (specifically Chinese) myths blended with fantasy and romance, The Last Dragon of the East will be your next favorite book. The entire story is portrayed through the POV of the male protagonist, and it’s been a while since I’ve read a book entirely from a man's perspective. I can relate to the MMC in a funny way because he tends to make silly jokes at serious moments—which only lands him in more trouble.

This book has the ability to make you feel both happy and sad at the same time. There are some depictions of violence that some readers might find disturbing, but I devoured the book in a single sitting. It gave me similar vibes to Axie Oh’s 'The Girl Who Fell Beneath the Sea', yet both books are unique in their own ways. Overall, The Last Dragon of the East will be a strong contender for my favorite read of the month.
