The Water Outlaws

This book wasn't bad at all but it put me in a huge slump that I've been in almost 2 months now. I keep trying to get back to it but nothing pulls me in. My friend has just finished it and based on their thoughts it seems like it's just better to let this go. 

I will say that the story was interesting and I wanted to love it. Lin Chong was interesting to follow, and she was the only reason I wanted to continue. I felt like her inner conflict and having to adapt to a lifestyle and values that were the opposite of what she is used to would've made a really good read. I really enjoyed what I have read of her. On the other hand, Lu Da was absolutely annoying and I genuinely hated reading the book whenever she was on page, which might've been why I didn't feel the pull to go back to the book. The way the narrator did her voice was awful too, which didn't help.
