Gorgeous gorgeous queer characterizations. This was one of my most memorable reads of the summer thanks to the hilarious storytelling and the chef's kiss audiobook narration. I don't read many 30+ badass FMCs but this was one of those I can genuinely say was worth the read. I especially loved the mix of both folklore and mythology of various cultures written in this. If there's a book two, I'm getting it in a heartbeat.
