I don’t get to say this often, but I really had no idea what this book was actually about when I started reading it. With that being said, I thought this was an interesting story. The dual POV narrative for each “book” was also cool, more so because one was almost always an outsider and the other was very close to Weylyn. The fantastic elements were cool albeit not really explained thoroughly but to be fair that wasn’t the point of the story. Even though the characters weren’t always really perfect, looking at you Lydia with your “fraternity over sorority” crap (internalized misogyny is bad guys) I think that made them more real in a way. The ending was kind of left open in my opinion (what do you mean Mary had a husband? where is he?) but it wasn’t horrendous so whatever.
Graphic: Injury/Injury detail, Grief, Animal death, Cursing, and Sexism
