5.0

I still love everything about this book on a second read! It has an amazing neurodivergent fmc and two completely swoonworthy mmc’s. Oh, and a polyamorous love triangle set in regency-era new world mystical planet with gigantic talking cats…. (This sounds absurd but I promise it’s one of the best parts of the book) 

Tight world building, fantastic characters, and a sensational love story. I could have done without the
vivid torture scene halfway through the book
and would have enjoyed it even more if the undertones of homophobia and biphobia weren’t part of the story, but it did not obviously stop me from thoroughly enjoying every other part of the novel. 

Wisteria is obviously the best, but on a second read, I found Ansther the greatcat to be my favorite character.
