The Goblin Emperor by Katherine Addison
3.25
adventurous dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

There were lots of things I liked about this book, primarily the worldbuilding and the language. I liked seeing Maia grow as a character. I wasn't overfond of the assumption that a fantasy world would be cruel to queer people.
