Also, the complexities of revolution against oppression were present in the characters’ struggles and conversations, which inspired me to consider these same complexities in reality. I want to know more about this world, and I want to know what happens next!

1. Please read the authors note, if you've read the story.
2. This was fascinating, the story and it's characters took so many turns in their character development. It all made sense though. There was a lot of hurt and grief in a few days storyline. The characters also had noticeable trauma, and all handled it differently, which is very good writing, because I've also read books where that was completely disregarded. So all in all worth the read, I think it's better to read it not spread out over months though.
3. Crooked Kingdom vibes at times.

The book is written by a POC author and almost all of the cast has browm skin but between the different folks there is a lot of colorism and hatred. It taught me a lot and made me realise I could never fully understand that pain. It is very emotional but very important to the story and handled well.alyssasaurus's review against another edition
