Days later, disguised as a boy, she attracts the attention of the nearly starving to death hero Ryam, a blonde haired, blue eyed “barbarian” (Russian maybe?), who by the magical power of romance novel can totally tell she’s a girl in disguise (and is baffled no one else can, much like all the readers I’m sure). At the start of the novel, Princess Ai Li, the heroine, is running away from her wedding and betrothed armed with her butterfly swords and a few guards. It’s hard for me to mention much of the plot outside of what is on the back cover without giving anything away. My new fuzzy slippers/socks are my new favorite reading companions! I actually only chose to request Butterfly Swords to start with because it was one of the few Jeannie Lins available at my library, but thankfully I accidentally picked the start of the Tang Dynasty series. ![]() Plus, I already broke free from Recency England, so I figured I’d continue the trend so that I’ll actually miss it when I come back. This wasn’t supposed to be my next read, but after mentioning in my Forbidden post that I wanted to actively ready more diversely in the romance genre, I took the plunge. It is incredible how lucky I have been with choosing reading material, and it’s only the second month of the year. ![]()
