Absolutely gorgeous descriptions and language!
When I got to the end of the preview, I had forgotten than it was an exerpt and am very sad now!
Julie Dao's writing is absolutely gorgeous, her descriptions of sights and smells and sounds had me lost in the world already!
I am a nurse as well and love reading anything even slightly medical related, so the mentions of the blood pox were interesting and that Bao was a physician's apprentice. I really can't wait to find out about Bao and Lan's journey together!
