A really interesting fusion of dystopia and fantasy. The genre is definitely the most unique aspect of this, and the world-building is subtle enough to hook you in the beginning and keep you reading to learn more about the world. The pacing felt a little weird near the last third of the book but overall was very enjoyable.
Graphic: Child death, Hate crime, and Sexual content
