Daughter of the Moon Goddess by Sue Lynn Tan
3.0
A strong 3.5-4 ⭐️
Really enjoyed the Chinese mythology basis for this book. Characters were also very engaging! There was a great balance between action, adventure and romance. Also dang, that plot twist (I did not see it coming). Book was well written. Some words and phrases were a little repetitive (iron and salt, and there was so much brocade fabric everywhere - literally every chapter I think). Mild complaints, but something I definitely noticed. Wish it was a little spicier romance wise but overall a very enjoyable read!

It’s get me every time.
Third time rereading this book (2023) - and I will continue to read it far into my future years. Poignant, raw, emotional and touching on many levels. It makes me fall in love with Dublin all over again.
5 stars most obviously

This book was such a pleasure to read. All I can say is damn, Greek gods really don’t give a fuck and that is how I’m gonna live my life now. 5/5 ⭐️
