grace_b_3 's review for:

Kushiel's Dart by Jacqueline Carey
1.5
adventurous dark emotional slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: No
Diverse cast of characters: Complicated
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

Upon reread, I like this less. 

The writing is quite flowery. The discussion of other cultures borders on racist. And then
there’s the whole concept of experiencing pain as pleasure. Why does that mean she enjoys being raped?
