My only real complaint is there were a few moments where modern references make sense but sometimes it felt awkward.
Some of it was a little predictable, but for every one thing I could predict there were two that surprised me.
The emotions that the characters and I go through in this book are such a wide range of complex feelings and I was entranced. This book addresses racism, classism, grief, and anger in ways no nonfiction book ever could, while still creating a compelling and engaging fantasy world.

In all seriousness this is a beautiful book about trauma, grief, and adventure. Exposition dumps are plenty and frequent but as someone with very little knowledge about Arthur and his legend I welcomed it. Also this poor MC faints/“darkness overtakes her” a lot lol.
