Reads like Ann Leckie and Arkady Martine for sci fi world building, but genre blended with sweet gay romance and a pinch of mystery adventure.
HUGE content warning for emotional and physical abuse. One main character seems to be aloof in the beginning but actually is traumatized. I think it is handled delicately, but still, read with care.

Moderate: Physical abuse

I haven’t felt this way about a book since I read One Last Stop. It’s the perfect slowburn. Lovely characters. A very well down reveal, like I had a feeling Jainan was a bit unreliable as a narrator, but I didn’t realize the extent of it.

Vehicle crash. Attack by animal. Abuse only briefly explicitly depicted in flashbacks, though the aftermath is present and discussed throughout. (Attempt at) memory modification.reginacattus's review against another edition
