The Apothecary Diaries: Volume 1
by Natsu Hyuuga
The apothecary diaries is a series about maomao a young apothecary from the red light district with a special interest in poison and medicine.
One day she finds herself far away from home and forced to work in the rear palace. She tries to stay out of trouble but her curiosity takes over and she gets involved in palace drama. After that new mysteries keep on happening and maomao believes that there is something bigger behind all of it.
《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《《
I would compare the vibes of the series with a detective story maybe a bit sherlock homes coded. Maomao is a beautiful main character with unique quirks that make you love her even more. The romance in the novels is subtle and slow burn. The romance only starts showing after light novel 5. I love that the romance is only a subplot to the mystery which adds to the characters instead of taking over their whole persona.
Also I really like the anime adaptation of the light novels and the comparisons between the characters and animals.
○ Maomao -> Cat
○ Jinshi -> Frog
○ Lihaku -> Dog/Golden Retriever
○ Lakan -> Fox
...and so much more.

Now please excuse me because I'm going to pressure my friends into reading the light novels/watching the anime.
