The Ghost Bride

F
FARHANA
good read

This was a beautifully written and touching novel. Fans of Peony in Love or Hayao Miyazaki's film Spirited Away will not be disappointed. The heroine of this story grows from a demure and spoiled girl into a confident and courageous woman. The world that Yangsze Choo creates is fantastic, more so because they reflect actual beliefs about the afterlife. This book has romance, terror, adventure and even some humor thrown in too. Ghost Bride earned every one of its stars

worth reading

The atmosphere in this novel is captivating and lovely. Some scenes are ghostly creepy. Being transported into a dreamworld adds that magical fantasy element.

Best Asian literature.

This is wonderfully crafted story. Best for those who are interested at all in the spirit world - what happens in-between life and after death. Revealing and educational as well for those interested in Asian culture.
