So deeply funny. I do feel like this book was mismarketed to me: I was told it’s lesbian necromancers solving murder mysteries in space, but it’s not all that gay or mysterious til about halfway through. It’s absolutely incredible, albeit not what I expected, and it broke my freaking heart and made me snort laugh at the same time.
