The Queen of the Night by Alexander Chee
4.0
I got completely sucked in to the story.
I wanted so much to know how it ended that I kept the book beyond its due date back to the library (by a day), and incurred a fine, since I had already renewed it once, so couldn't again, just so I could get it finished.
So many knots of people influencing each other and seeming to drive the main characters life, and she lets them. Very confusing to try and untangle, and I'm still not sure I actually managed to.
