Wow I loved this! So glad I finally got around to reading this series, I knew I’d be obsessed with it. Reminded me so much of She Who Became The Sun which I love too. R.F. Kuang is one of my favorite writers, this was so well-written and full of interesting characters. The story is beautiful, tragic, and complex; I loved Rin and could see how she is slowly becoming a morally grey main character, I’m excited to see where her story goes along with everyone else.
