Lady of Ch'iao Kuo: Red Bird of the South, Southern China, A.D. 531 by Laurence Yep
3.0
I liked her alot and thought she had a great personality. I felt akin to her as a fellow reader.
It really liked it when I read it but i'm sure if I reread it now it'd be a bit problematic.
I remember thinking it was cool to see a different princess aka non European one but I didn't know how to express that.
I have to reread this series and give my adult post graduate degree perspective but what I remember liking was:
-the characters in this series were roughly my age when I read the books (YA)
-it gave you an idea of what life may have been like back then
-they did have an afterword with historic information that gave you more context on their real lives and often photos or paintings
