The Ghost Bride by Yangsze Choo

4.0

The story details the journey Chinese Malaysian girl as she journeys through the Ten Courts of Hell in order to escape becoming the ghost bride to the deceased soon of a local influential family.

Spooky, very well written, the author's prose is beautiful in parts. She invokes beautiful imagery showcases a deep knowledge of the diverse history of Chinese Malaysians. The story itself was very slow moving and I found some of the sub plots (her mother and the characters in the Plains of the Dead Lim House) to be confusing, but I was invested in the love story and was satisfied with the ending.
