For some reason no one in the reviews deigns this worth mentioning but this book contains brother/sister incest.

It was good otherwise but why did that have to be a thing. I really don't care that they aren't blood related either, in fact the implication that it's fine because of this pisses me off more. Non-blood related family are just as real as blood related. Their relationship would be terrible even if they weren't siblings honestly the male love interest is just an ass.

Moving on...I enjoyed the book, I really like how this author includes malayan beliefs in her work. I didn't think this was nearly as good as the ghost bride though. There just seemed to be a lot of ideas thrown in that didn't really connect and the end of the book weirdly shifted focus to the “romance”. And honestly? Even the romance wasn't really resolved.

The writing was beautiful and I look forward to reading her future works even though I really hope she got the incest stuff out of her system with this.
