Once again, Kuang approaches topics of racism, misogyny and classism superbly well, and the exploration of what is moral in war was handled well as well. Not one I'd recommend to everyone, check the trigger warnings.

Enjoyed the first half of the story, classic school and training montage to defying odds pay off. Found the second half of the story harrowing but couldn't put it down.
Didn't fully love MC, she wasn't super agreeable and also didn't have a reliable moral compass or reliable decision making. Felt like she was written to be who the author needed her to be in that moment.
Enjoyed other characters and their dynamics.
