Qiang Jin Jiu 将进酒 by Tang Jiu Qing
5.0
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No

Legitimately one of the best things I have ever read. Such beautifully written characters that are all fleshed out with proper motivations and personalities. Every big 'villain' in this is complex and interesting and at times I felt quite sad for them even though I was rooting for the main characters. At one point I was crying so hard my face was all sore from wiping my tears 🥲 I'm also usually not one to be interested in these kinds of feudal political storylines but I was actually really invested in this one.
