    "The White Snake's Wedding, with a Hundred Ghosts Escorting the Bride" is one of the best supernatural novels I've read recently! The protagonist, Nie Ling, has a very compelling character. From her unusual birth to her later bonds with the guardian spirits and her python master, everything is written in a very engaging way. The supernatural events in the book are both eerie and logical, and the author's control of the atmosphere is excellent, making for a very immersive reading experience. I genuinely found it very enjoyable.
