Very flowery prose if you're not into that, but if you are its very well done and a delight to read. I enjoyed this series so much, I really couldn't reccomend it enough.

There's so much self-hatred packed into this book. I found it a little amusing how often characters thought "I feel terrible right now, all according to plan!". That being said, you can't really look away as you watch them barrel toward their own destruction.
I honestly wondered if/how Zhu was going to manage to come out of this successful.

I really appreciated the continued depth with which the author explored gender and identity in this series, as well as mental health.
This story forces you to ask yourself, “is it too late to change the fate that I chose?” And “who am I once I turn away from everything I’ve always believed?”
While not a 5⭐️ duology for me personally, I think it is worth the time.
