Wow, just WOW!! This is my first time reading R. F. Kuang and I am thoroughly impressed! I loved getting the behind the scenes of the publishing industry and thinking about who gets to tell who’s stories and where writers get their ideas from and are any ideas we have completely original??? Following Junie through this wild ride and her internal thoughts on the journey were challenging and cringe worthy at times just because of the ridiculous things she did to keep her secret. I highly recommend checking this book out!!
