Please make sure you read content warnings! This book gets intense towards the end of part 2 when it comes to war, gore, abuse, rape and anything dealing with war/genocide. At the end of the day this novel is a war novel and it’s dipectuons of war are intense and at times disturbing. Because it is heavily and I mean heavily inspired by the 2nd Shino war between China and Japan.
Tiktok likes to advertise this as an enemies to lovers and that is not true not in the slightest.
