All of her "It's my fault"-bla bla is annoying me already. ..."

I've never seen the movie, but this is making me interested.
(view spoiler)[ I'm over the 'my fault' thing too. And it took too long for Shang to die. That sounds bad, but he was just dragging along forever it seemed. I would wake up thinking I'd just dreamed his father. (hide spoiler)]

Chapter 8
(view spoiler)[ King Yama is pretty much how I expected him to be. Underworld kings/gods are always pretty much the same. I get it is a depressing job, but come on. lol. ShiShi wasn't the most useful. lol (hide spoiler)]

33%
(view spoiler)[ Never trust an old woman in the underworld. That's like, basics. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

46%
(view spoiler)[ She was so close to telling him. I wish she just would already. I really don't know how he hasn't figures it out. (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[ I think he's more upset about her lying about it than her being a woman. That's was what I got out of it. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

85%
(view spoiler)[ These are the worst kinds of riddles. There really isn't any right or wrong answer. (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Chapter 32
(view spoiler)[WTF? All that and he doesn't remember? She has to tell him all over again? And doesn't even remember what she did for him to make it easier? (hide spoiler)]

[Ashley W]

Finished
(view spoiler)[ Okay, never mind. It's all good now. I liked the story overall. Now I'm more interested in the movie than I was. I'm glad that Shang was supportive of Mulan in the end and he even has ambitions for her. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 1: (view spoiler)[I am excited for this read. I am already liking the story. I heard this story was one of the better books in the series. Can't wait (hide spoiler)]

(view spoiler)[I thought the reveal would happen a bit later. Perhaps after they left the underworld. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 21: (view spoiler)[I am happy about the fact that Shang came back and found her. I am really enjoying this book. It is a 4.5/5 so far. (hide spoiler)]

[spoilers removed]"

I agree! (view spoiler)[It must have been very difficult for Mulan to confront her demons like that. This scene reminded me of Divergent because of the simulation about how many fears you have, but also Insurgent as Tris has to go through those tests to open the box. (hide spoiler)]

[Sharon]

Chapter 29: (view spoiler)[ Where there is beauty, there is also courage, strength and resilience.” This is a beautiful quote. I believe that it means that women are beautiful, but they also have the courage, strength and resilience to break the mold and do everything that a man can do. It represents that women are forces to be reckoned with. (hide spoiler)]
