Fireheart Tiger by Aliette de Bodard
2.0
decided to finish this up before going to bed and. wow. i did not like it
the characters didn’t feel real at all, they felt like they were just there to Do Things
also while reading this i saw one review that said something like “why do the mc and Giang get together she calls Giang her li’l sis” and i was like “well ive read one instance of that happening but yknow maybe its a more general form of endearment and/or this fantasy world doesn’t have wording for queer relationships” no. she and Giang call each other big sis and lil sis so many times. once right before kissing. and queer relationships are accepted in this book. so its not even wording differences it’s just pure ick
