The Great Zoo of China

Not sure what I was expecting from this, but for some reason my expectations weren't high. I was thinking of something whimsical and flimsy. But instead, this was a detective story, a love story, an adventure and sci-fi epic, all packed into a 250 page novella. I was so intrigued from the first chapter, and my curiosity wasn't satisfied until the very last page. I loved the ending, far more than I ever expected. It felt nostalgic yet futuristic all at the same time, bringing back a lot of memories of the pandemic, and some lessons for the future. A five star read.

Not quite as good as HR, but still good, and in different ways. Its a lot less thrilling, but very soft and fluffy, with plenty of cute moments. There's a few high stakes moments, and lows, but it's mostly just very cute.

I think the reception that the show is getting is indicative of how good the book is, since the adaptation is pretty much word for word what’s written. It’s a really good book, much better than I was expecting. Yes, it’s smutty, but there is genuine character development and a good storyline.
