She Who Became the Sun

You may want to take this with a grain—or handful—of salt...but this was one of the most drawn out, and boring, novels I have ever experienced I think. This made me read so much slower than my usual pace and very nearly put me into a reading slump, which I next-to-never experience. I was actually real real close to a DNF, which if you know anything about me by now, it's probably that I never stop while reading a book, but wow I found this one tough. The worst part is that I'm not even sure what exactly I didn't enjoy. 

Although most sexual scenes were glazed over, there is a VERY in depth fisting scene, as I'm sure you've read about by now, so be sure to be on the lookout for that. I thought the characters were enjoyable with the exception of Zhu talking about her stolen identity and fate which happened damn near 900 times too many. Personally a 2.5/5* for me. Below are two favorite quotes from this book that are just so ridiculous as to be perfect. 

“That motherfucker. Fuck eighteen generations of his ancestors!”

“I opened those gates myself, and I left that betraying piece of dog shit to his fate. May those Hu bastards kill him painfully so he can eat bitterness in hell and all his future lives!”
