Absolutely beautiful writing and world building, and despite a fairly large cast of characters I didn’t get confused among them. I really felt like I was there. I’m usually not a fan of stories that aren’t as focused on plot but I actually think this was amazing and paced really well, and the plot was weaved in just the amount it needed to be.
Graphic: Animal death
Moderate: Child abuse, Death of parent, and Religious bigotry
