Shanghai Immortal by A.Y. Chao
3.0

I really wanted to enjoy this book, but it left me wanting more. The book is character-driven, rather than plot-driven, so the story ended up being quite bare and boring. I’m hoping for more from the sequel to come. The protagonist is absolutely insufferable for the first half, but I enjoyed her growth and development. The love interest is adorable and far too pure for this world.
