To give this book anything less than 5* would be an insult. This was so intricately written, with so many details, and so much passion....
At no point in the story could I predict what was going to happen next and although this took me more than a week to finish (which must be some kind of record), I was never bored and continually intrigued. Wow.

Truly an epic. Extremely immersive, emotionally devastating in the best way, and an amazing exploration of gender.
