haven't been able to put a book down like this since the missing of clairdelune. interesting worldbuilding and great writing, though for some reason there starts to be a lot of unnecessary one line paragraphs in the second half of the book. also, i should have counted how many times phedre was like "i never understood why A was B, but now i see why".
the way phedre considers using of the safe word an utter loss is disappointing.
