"This book was amazing! I loved the intricate graphics and the overall meaning. This is such a good read for teens that are into romance but also enjoy hearing the dark parts about it. Also, I read this in one setting so it’s a quick read! I highly recommend! "

"Actual rating: 3.5 stars<br/><br/>Story: 3.5 stars<br/>Images: 5 stars<br/><br/>I really enjoyed the cultural aspects of this--learning about the lion dance and tet; and the artwork is beautiful and captures the dances and everything else perfectly. It was also interesting to see how Val's idea of love changes, captured by how Saint V appears to her."
