Also, Sister Holiday has too many contradictory interests and characteristics. This made it pretty difficult to understand/get-on-board with the character.
There is a stained glass motif that is not particularly emphasized, but is really good!

I appreciated the brutal honesty of the story and the inclusion of plenty of important issues, but can see why this may not suit everyone if they expected something else.
The prose was beautiful, and full of colour and light, with the description of place and character just enough to draw me into the story. There were a few slightly repetitive parts, and loose ends that could have been tied up, but seeing as this is the start of the series, I’m assuming that they will be in the next book. I can’t wait to read it when it comes out!
