The premise, hinting at a story involving slavery and a strong female lead, felt like a refreshing take on familiar tropes. I was eager to dive into a world of court intrigue and character drama. ### What Works Well The novel's strength lies in its protagonist. She's truly a vibrant character, full of life and determination. It's easy to become invested in her journey and root for her success. I found myself captivated by her resilience. The author's writing style is also quite lovely. The prose flows smoothly and paints a vivid picture of the historical setting. The translation captures the nuance of the original text. The author is able to make an intriguing setting and the characters feel alive. ### Areas of Concern While the story is engaging, I did find myself wishing for more depth. The story felt shorter than I would have liked, and I was left wanting more exploration of certain plot points and character relationships. It felt like the story ended too soon. ### Final Verdict Overall, "The Prequel of Kunshan Jade" is an enjoyable read, particularly if you're a fan of historical romance with a strong female lead.
