Won in a giveaway. Different than what I’d usually pick up and enjoyable! Scenes of Cass losing her love hit me hard in the feels just a couple days after the six month mark of losing my late partner last November after an illness that physically consumed him like Ianthe, but was probably healing to read the words nonetheless. 

Recommend reviewing CWs for folks 💜

Content Warnings

Graphic: Terminal illness, Chronic illness, and Death

Moderate: Xenophobia, Addiction, and Violence

Minor: Death of parent, Murder, Drug use, Drug abuse, and Abandonment

While not technically abandoned, a main character definitely struggles with feelings of abandonment, hence indicated as a minor CW, but it’s a fairly prominent theme for good sections of the novel, so could be considered moderate.
