I greatly preferred this to House of Salt and Sorrows, but take that with the grain of salt that this book is kind of way more insane in its twists and turns. The pacing is pretty typical for the first half and breakneck in the second, but I didn’t find it overly jarring.
The only thing that may not hit for everyone like it did for me is that the characters themselves, or at least the main pair, are easily the least interesting part of the book. I do think that the wheelchair user representation is super intriguing—the conversations between the main two about it are very sweet, the accommodation of it in the main setting is cool, the fact that we’re not ignoring ableism’s existence is nice!
Overall, dying to know what happens next, hoping this isn’t a standalone??
