if it kept the same energy as the first 50 pages, I would've given this 5 stars. the exquisite prose stayed the same til the end, but the plot & characters all felt so abstract & so hard to decipher from reality vs fairytale that i felt like i was hallucinating half the time. the way everything circles back in the end is brilliant though; i can't lie. i will definitely read Chokshi's backlist because this was a ride.
