The Familiar by Leigh Bardugo

medium-paced

4.25

“A child. A farmer. A scullion. And a young woman who looked like the Virgin herself had stepped from the frame of one of Pérez's many paintings. Luzia could taste the pomegranate in her mouth, the flavor of her own ambition, her appetite for more. She eyed the golden curtains of the stage and knew she would prove Santángel right. She was done going hungry.”
