Opium and Absinthe by Lydia Kang

5.0

Historical books are typically not ones I search out and read, but this one I happened to grab while randomly adding books to my cart and am glad it did.
Though the main character I could not relate to and seemed weak and frustratingly naive until midway through the book, seeing her character grow and strengthen into someone admirable and likeable as she solved the mystery of her sister's death was what kept me reading.
