I really wanted this to be great. The topics, setting and main argument about female empowerment were excellent.
The writing could have been better. A lot of feels and concepts were over explained. Especially the main character’s development.
Character development could have been the main topic, but the author chose to have it very plot driven as well. Just a bit more editing and refinement would have helped.
Loved that the author incorporated the caste system into the plot and development.
