Shanghai Immortal by A.Y. Chao
funny
lighthearted
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
3.0
This is a fun book, and it was interesting to learn more about Chinese folklore. The main character was a bit immature, which I guess kind of makes sense since she's led mostly quite a sheltered life, but yeah I can see why people say it reads more like YA than adult fiction. I think my favourite bit was when they were in mortal Shanghai.
