OMFG WHAT WAS THAT????!
It's illegal for a book to be this good 😭 the book finished me fr....
This is a book about female rage, a sort of coming of age (?), on how the so called "civilized" people built their power upon the taking, salvaging, emptying indigenous land.
This is a reflection of how our "modernity" works. And to take that literally....
A critic of academic world of how mostly they don't live up with the truth nor knowledge...
So neatly written, so atmospheric, I can see the red. When ML WANG wrote Blood Over Bright Haven she meant it. Mother is mothering 🧎🏾♀️🧎🏾♀️🧎🏾♀️🧎🏾♀️
Of you're into high fantasy, dark academia, toppling down tyrannical government, while dealing with hope and internal conflict of your feelings.... READ THIS BOOK.
Thanks so much Del Rey Pub for the arc through Netgalley in exchange for honest review.
