Huge thank you to NetGalley and Flatiron Books for allowing me to read this early! Once you get into this book it has some amazing characters and a beautiful world to dive into. But, it is a very slow start which may turn some readers off. While this does have elements of fantasy/sci-fi it does feel more like a literary fiction novel and I feel like that genre would fit better. Overall I did really enjoy the story and found the overall book to be incredibly well written.
