Water Moon by Samantha Sotto Yambao
4.5
adventurous emotional hopeful mysterious reflective medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

Atmospheric. Lush. Dreamlike. A magical realism feast for the senses.  A lull in pacing in the middle and a childbirth scene seemingly written by someone who has never experienced it, but otherwise a creative world that enchants the routine and ordinary. On the surface cozy with some heavier emotion themes and darker elements.
