Brutal like beauty and fresh like freedom, this book was a surprise to me, but a good one. I found it very spine-chilling and very interesting, and I really liked the ways in which for every character art and beauty was a different thing, as well as freedom and identity. There is a lot one can discuss about it, and some very interesting historical details were woven into the plot. Honestly, I enjoyed it immensely and will gladly pick up more by this author.
