A review by strombolibones
The Black Tides of Heaven by Neon Yang

3.5

A 5-hour novella primarily about finding ones Identity, specifically within the... Confines? of Gender, Family, and Destiny.

Has a bare-bones-but-functional magic system that uses your standard Elemental approach.

I wouldn't stake my whole reputation on it but this gave me The Spear Cuts Through Water vibes big time. 

Book 2 in the trilogy next month 🙏
