this book is not for me 😞 its more plot driven, focusing on mulan's adventure in the underworld. im a HUGE fan of mythology but the way the writer describes diyu is so... shallow. i wish it would've delved deeper into mulan character and her relationship with shang. i love mulan sm but the mulan in this story is so bland and boring and i struggled to relate to her. i'm so disappointed bcs i had high expectations :(

While I really enjoyed the journey through an Underworld with lore unfamiliar to me (Diyu was a fascinating place), I have always struggled to relate to Mulan, and I think that may have made it more difficult for me to really get into her story.
