Speaking about the unconventional... the world and magic system ! I admire how unique and thoroughly researched it was. Jemisin really succeeded to make me interested in geology 😂.
The three POVs served the mysterious aspect of the story perfectly as it allowed the author to lead the reader step by step (or should I say hint by hint) to the reveals.
(I do want to add that I don't know why I find the cover so mesmerising but I just do... anyone else ?)

This book is majorly fucked up; especially the scenes in the Fulcrum. Read at your own risk.
