- I adored both our sweet blockhead main characters, who were both trying to do what they thought was best for the other one without, you know, actually asking what might be best.
- The universe Maxwell has built here is so detailed and the central mystery kept me guessing.

After a second read:
In my first read I saw Jainan's behavior and was wondering about it. In my second read, knowing what I knew..
The mystery, the world-building, the political structures, how authentic the characters are.. these are just a few of the many things I loved about this book. There is nothing I don't like about the book.
The audiobook wasn't as enjoyable, I have to say.
Definitely check CW and TW before reading!
