This book was somehow slow- and fast-moving at the same time! The writing is lyrical and elegant, and the world building is solid enough that I only felt out of place because it is an unfamiliar government system. I sometimes lost track of who the others were, to be honest, and who was and was not trustworthy. I had read this before but couldn't recall most of the plot, so the twists and reveals were a surprise this time around as well.
Graphic: Torture and Death of parent
Moderate: Misogyny
