@lukesreads: The Poet Empress by Shen Tao. This is not only a scintillating debut, it’s one of the best novels I’ve ever read. It had me completely enthralled and my internal world was under siege. It was poetic and breathtaking; leaving me stunned at its beauty and asking myself: what’s the pain our monsters carry, and are they even monsters at all? #BookTok #bookworm #BookRecommendations #thepoetempress #shentao
