I'm glad I came across <a href="https://locusmag.com/2020/12/katharine-coldiron-reviews-master-of-poisons-by-andrea-hairston/">this review</a>, because it echoes my thoughts perfectly (and validates my experience of thinking maybe I missed some explanations at the beginning). It's an incredible story with many breathtaking moments. And it was also exhausting to read and keep up with; it kept feeling like maaaaybe the next chapter will pause to clarify some things and let the reader collect their thoughts but that never happened.
