Here are my picks for the 5 best historical fiction published this year. Are there any others you would add?

I‘m posting one book a day from my massive collection. No description, no reason for why I want to read it (some I‘ve had so long I don‘t even remember why!). Feel free to join in!

pickThis has been a standout read of the year. I absolutely loved everything about it. The narrative is told alternately between Snow, the fox wife, and Bao, the private investigator looking for her. The setting is China at the end of Empress Cixi's reign, as modernity and Western culture start to infiltrate China.
It's heavily interlaced with Chinese, Japanese, and Korean folklore.
Highly recommended 5⭐️

pickA quirky mix of stories about Chinese in America and history. I liked the part about the railroad workers the best. Sort of a hybrid of facts and legends. I haven't read anything else by the author, but I do have another history book about Asians in America I'd like to read. I was in SF last year and I thought the Liberty statue at Portsmouth Square near Chinatown was historical about Chinese in America, but it was about Tiananmen Square.
My 2nd book selection for #10beforetheend is this amazing novel. Only 3 chapters in and I'm completely entranced. Disclaimer - it has nothing to do with foxes being my favourite mammal. 💙❄️🦊❄️💙

Hence it is only the enlightened ruler and the wise general who will use the highest intelligence of the army for purposes of spying and thereby they achieve great results. Spies are a most important element in war, because on them depends an army‘s ability to move.
