I was drawn in by the art on the cover. I will admit I went into reading without paying much attention and thought it would be a manga. However, I was pleasantly suprised even when I realized it was not. Not only is the art eye-catching but the story was beautiful. Li Zheng is relatable and I am sure many people can identify with insecurity taking over.
