While I was a liiitle lost at the start, I quickly became quite invested in this story! I don't know much about tea, but I loved how deeply Ning very obviously cares for and loves her family, and will do anything to protect what is left of them. She is also mourning the loss of her mother, which makes her even more sympathetic. I cannot wait to see what kind of twists she faces on her journey going forward! (Also that cover. Talk about gorgeous!)
