Picked this up for the last prompt of my reading challenge and I loved this, so much packed in such a tiny book in terms of genres and world building. It hooked me even though I barely understood any of the magical universe but it turned out I didn’t really needed that understanding because it came along the way; so not sure if it was all specific to this story and written to be mysterious, or wether it was actually accessibly written for readers with entry-level knowledge on wizardry people and - not unimportantly - the bible. These demons and angels were surprisingly worthless however, all withholding information that could save some precious time. Interesting little ride with a pretty but bittersweet ending.
Graphic: Blood, Lesbophobia, Murder, Body horror, and Death
Moderate: Misogyny and Forced institutionalization
Minor: Car accident and Death of parent
