best book ive read this year and definitely one of the best ive ever read. literally changed the way stories can be told for me, i will never be the same after seeing how first, second and third person can be weaved so cleverly like this. 

i read this via audiobook and the narrator did such an amazing job i was never lost or confused when we switched perspective but i can see that it might be different reading it traditionally. 

i cant explain how like ?? raw and human this book is even tho its a fantasy ? some of the elements were also just weird but it worked so well for me i absolutely loved how things were told as they were. 

loved loved LOVED. cant wait to see more by this author!
