I adore the anime adaptation of this manga so I just had to give reading it a shot! I love the art style in the manga and it's always really cool to see comparisons between the adaptation and the manga. I still adore the story and I'm so excited to read through the manga and see what lies ahead!

'The Apothecary Diaries' by Natsu Hyuuga is a fascinating peek into the life in the inner court of a palace. 
Kidnapped and working as a servant in the palace, Maomao's life takes a turn when she solves the mystery of a curse that is affecting the emperor's heirs. Promoted, the inner court utilizes Maomao's knowledge of herbal medicine to cure ails and solve apparent mysteries that are circulating. 
'The Apothecary Diaries" blends a historical story with intrigue and mystery. Maomao is a sympathetic character who we are slowly getting to know better. This first volume introduces her and a hint of her backstory while also weaving her into the life of the inner court. I have a feeling that this story will continue to explore the political intrigue in the palace and how Maomao's knowledge can help solve different issues. I'm intrigued to see where this story goes next.
