Thanks to the publisher for the ARC via NetGalley.
This debut novel was absolutely incredible. I saw some other early reviewers mention that it is slightly confusing at the beginning and my response to that is to keep reading! This is the first book in a trilogy so Chan is setting up a whole world and introducing multiple characters which means there’s a lot to keep track of but as you continue reading, everything falls into place. Chan also has her characters address real world issues throughout the novel in a truly poignant way. I am very much looking forward to reading book two and anything else Chan releases in the future.
