The plot felt like the author had SUCH a good idea, and then structured all of her mystery reveals around the world building, which is such a great way to organically introduce your otherworldly fantasy. I loved the characters and their diverse identity expression and exploration of self.
And -- I picked up this book really hoping it would turn out this way -- the romance is poly with ZERO toxicity or jealous involved!! There's even an ace/aro character involved in the polycule! I never gets to see such a thing explicitly represented in romance, SO this was very exciting for me.
This was a really unique NA fantasy and I highly recommend it for anyone who is looking for something a bit darker and off the beaten path!

There is no misgendering or explicit abuse, but there is a gender neutral character who is treated badly by the villain of the book due to their gender identity.radiosilent8's review against another edition
