"The Green Phoenix" Made It to Bustle's List
Today was just an ordinary day, until I saw on Twitter Bustle.com's List of "11 Historical Novels by Women To Look Forward To This Fall"!
You guessed it - The Green Phoenix: A Novel of the Woman Who Re-Made Asia, Empress Xiaozhuang is on that List!!
A tantalizing story of one of history's most fascinating women, The Green Phoenix will show readers a world like they've never seen before. - Sadie Trombetta, BUSTLE
Yippee!

Thanks, Fran. I'm grateful for the exposure!
Belated congratulations, Alice! The Green Phoenix: A Novel of the Woman Who Re-Made Asia, Empress Xiaozhuang is on my to-read shelf.
Thank you so much, Werner! I'd love to hear your thoughts on the novel :)
I'm looking forward to it, Alice! But given that it's one of 399 books on that shelf, it'll probably be awhile until I get to it. (Sigh!)
Werner, I understand. Hopefully, the uniqueness of my novel in terms of time and place and historical characters will be an impetus for you to pick it up sooner rather than later :)

Haha, isn't that a common problem for most readers - too many books, too little time?
