A Bride's Story, 1, by Kaoru Mori

A Bride's Story, 1, by Kaoru Mori, 191 pages

This story takes place in 19th-century Mongolia.  Amir is a young woman of 20 who has just been given as a bride to an even younger groom of 12 (which is a little icky, I know- don't worry, it's well-done).  She must adapt to a new husband, a new family, and a new way of life.  The premise didn't sound that exciting to me, but the artwork and pacing was pretty good.  Plus, bonus points for taking a chance on a storyline.
