A Deadly Education by Naomi Novik

adventurous funny medium-paced

4.5

I was so excited to read Astolot's published work and it's SO GOOD. I think it took me a while to finish because I had to like get my head to line up with El as a character? Don't get me wrong, she's fun and I love her so much, but in a Our Little Queen of Darkness teenage emo kid sort of way so I had to adjust the vibe in my head haha. Fantastic world building, the way the monsters were described was horrible (affectionate). The cliffhanger was Rude and I need to pester my friend for the second book immediately.
