if you are interested in deep dives of characters, this is the one for you! you are quite literally taken on a journey of both maristela/stela and fly's ancestry and the loves of those peoples' lives. the only thing that messed this up for me is the ending! it left me a little unclear and am unsure of the plot device (covid-related, so also still working through how that was applied for this story). otherwise, i surprisingly really enjoyed this slow and introspective exploration of the characters' lives!
