Very distressing story and setting. Post-apocolyptic and somewhat post-colonial. Story involves kidnapping, Beauty & the Beast-style "romance," and very serious medical/illness related themes. I rarely feel that a book is paced too fast for me but I often felt myself wishing we spent more time getting to know the characters and letting the story play out at less of a breakneck pace. Gorgeous imagery.
Recommend for fans of queer romance enemy to lovers novels.
