So. Much. Angst. My heart fractured so many times while reading this book. Every time Xingyin’s heart broke, mine did too. I felt her grief deep in my soul. 

This book made me want to sing and cry at the same time.
The Wenzhi redemption arc- phew! I was rooting for him from the start!
I was feeling every emotional high and low like it was my own emotions at stake. 

This story is now a forever favorite. The character arcs. The thrilling plot. The symbolism. The fantastic prose. 

If Sue Lynn Tan writes it, I’m gonna read it. 

Liwei working so hard to save Wenzhi for Xingyin… that’s love. I’m so proud of him for setting aside that pain he felt for her. And that Wenzhi and Xingyin will get another chance…. Yes, I cried. A lot.
