The Apothecary Diaries takes a similar look at how herbs are used in an older Asian society where Imperial rulers and concubines still exist and not much is really known about medicine just yet. Snow White with the Red Hair is evidence of that, since I’m sure I’ve written a ton about that series and how much I loved how it dug into herbology and medicine in a slightly medieval fantasy world. I have always been interested in stories that focus on herbology, medicine, or solving medical mysteries. I saw it sitting on one of the shelves, and immediately knew I needed to buy it. I think I saw it come up on my Twitter feed from the publisher or someone who follows manga releases, but only really remembered it existed when I went to browse my comic book store a few weeks ago. I almost completely forgot this series was coming out.
