 Okay, I found it on Tiktok, and just after it was available on Libby. It was a sign, right? And it is a beautiful story, the first volume of a YA fantasy story. The characters felt realistic, but I wished some subjects/parts were more developed. 
Also, I love how warriors are not just women who can fight. And the trans/queer normative story!
