minya, thyon nero, and calixte are the only characters that made this bearable
the plot swerved so suddenly and so out of the way of my expectations??
there was so much backstory?? maybe 40% of the book actually happened in the present? and everything just ties back to characters that are already d***
there was a wide array of povs and interesting characters, but not enough interesting interactions or any actual growth?
also, the reveal of weep's hidden name? a letdown if i ever saw one
