It was a compelling novel and I can’t wait to pick up the second book in the duology.įair warning: spoilers ahead for anyone who hasn’t read this book.

If you’re looking for a blend of high fantasy, ancient Chinese mythology, romance, and magical creatures, I can’t recommend Daughter of the Moon Goddess enough. The writing felt a touch more formal than a lot of the books I read, but I found the nature of the tone lent really well to the ancient, majestic qualities of the story. Looking back, it’s astonishing that this was just one book because the amount of plot and action weaved in is staggering. It was so epic in so many regards that by about halfway, I found I couldn’t put it down.

It sounded like a promising premise, but I was utterly unprepared for how all-consuming this book would become for me. I picked up Daughter of the Moon Goddess on a great sale at Homesense partly because I thought the cover was gorgeous and partly because of the excellent reviews I’d seen on Instagram from reviewers with similar reading preferences.
