this was honestly one of the most interesting books i’ve ever read. i think something important to note about the book is to pay attention to the things that are unsaid and you do have to read in between the lines. i think a western perspective can ruin books like this because you kind of have to figure things out for yourself and it is not explicitly spelled out. this book may require some rereading to hone in on the little details that i may have missed the first time.
