This book was… an experience to read. In many ways it was fascinating and the world building was incredibly interesting. I personally have great difficulty with graphic violence and so I struggled a bit with this book even though I had had someone read it before me and block out certain parts with sticky notes! That being said, its approach to gender, sex, religion, and politics was very interesting, even though I didn’t always agree with it. Very cool! An amazing debut book!
Graphic: Body horror, Injury/Injury detail, Murder, Sexual violence, Sexual content, Torture, Death, Gore, and Kidnapping
Moderate: Mental illness
