A review by azu
The House of Shattered Wings by Aliette de Bodard

4.0

There is something cathartic with reading a book sets in Paris when you're a quarantined Parisian and found yourself in the impossibility of taking a walk around the Île de la Cité. Not that I would like to take a walk around a *ruined* Île de la Cité in real life but eh, I'll take it.

More seriously, this was a very stolid 1st book (already ordered the 2nd, can't wait to start it!!) with an intriguing and clever universe.
