A review by stonehedger
Phoenix Extravagant by Yoon Ha Lee

4.0

I really love the concept of the book and storyline, but whether because the lead character was non-binary or it was poorly translated, there are no true personal pronouns. So every reference to characters used they, their, them throughout the book. No she or her. This is further compounded by a second main character called Vei, pronounced vay. I hope it is the translation and not something I missed that caused this. Perhaps the book can be further transcribed to put these vital references in.
Great story though.
