Ever since I was a kid I was intrigued by Egyptian culture and mythology, this was the main reason why I picked up this book.
It gave me so much more, I loved the characters, the main characters fully stole my heart (looking at you Khaf) but I also adored many more of the characters, they were simply just fun and complex most of the time and I loved following them through their journey.
I cried, laughed, wanted to yank my phone away and I got very annoyed too. A full rollercoaster of a book, but it was perfect as a cozy little book that hurts you just perfectly.
