The story of one woman living with multiple gods/beings inside her. Beautifully written and such clear character differential even though they were all in the same body.

An extremely ambitious and clever book. This was a challenging, multi-layered read and one that would definitely benefit from a second reading.

This is such an interesting read… not sure how I felt about the MC by the end but I think that’s the point. She was complicated and it made the story that much more intriguing imo.

I found this really beautiful and complex but also hard to follow. But also I think that was purposeful and okay!
