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 ?)

For all its darkness and apocalypses, it has a surprisingly hopeful feeling to it. There are some nice fuzzy moments of love and peace among the dark. I can't wait to finish the next two books already!
