reflective medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? Yes
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

5.0

Incredibly beautiful and vivid and rich prose, woven with what was clearly a huge amount of detailed research.

Content Warnings

Moderate: Animal death

Minor: Sexual violence

Spoiler regarding "animal death" tag, for anyone who would rather know the context in advance (not a big plot spoiler if you do need to know in advance)

The animal death is the MC's pet bird. It happens early on and is quite quick but also graphic and upsetting. Will add a specific page when I get the book back (already lent it out bc it was so good!)
