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.

I've been hearing a lot about this manga and wanted to see what all the hype was about. I used to read any and all manga I could get my hands on when I was younger so I figured it would be nice to reignite that love...and this book did not disappoint.
I already love our main character as she's smart and funny and I'm interested to see more side characters come into play.
