I went into this book completely blind based off a recommendation. It’s very much unlike anything I typically read and I took some time to envision the characters and the setting. However, I was wrapped up in the world. I found it interesting and unique. There are some parts that could even be described as horror. The remade, Motley, and the slake moths are straight out of nightmares.
