I am really interested to see where the author will take the next book, especially as Zetian is extremely femmephobic and rejects female companionship. Is this a product of the setting? Is it a product of their complicated feelings about their own gender?

This is everything. Everything I find wrong with YA, gone. Everything I dislike about fantasy, gone. Everything I dislike about scifi, gone. Only the good parts remain and it is so, SO good.
Particularly, for those who have negative feelings about love triangles, never fear.
10/10, I'm so glad I stumbled upon their YouTube videos and decided to pick up their book when it came out.
(Edited because I messed up their pronouns. So sorry!)

There is allusion to intersexism, in that it's rumoured that intersex people may exist but they're not taught about and the narrator speculates on how they may be mistreated for being born different.v_neptune's review against another edition

this book is good but intense. even though i'm someone who usually avoids a lot of the topics i've listed here, i loved this book and i think these topics were represented in a way that wasn't very triggering for meapersonfromflorida's review against another edition
