I'm so disappointed :'((( this started out strong and introduced a lot of interesting themes but ended up not following through on any of it and being emotionally distant and boring.
There was no point where I thought Anna's affection for Leviathan was believable at all, and it felt like any relationship they had outside of business happened somewhere off the page.
Seeing a lot of reviews talking about the grey morality in this book which was one of the main parts which started well and then got ignored. Definitely not well executed and not even an original concept to anyone who has experienced more than one piece of superhero media in their life.
