I’m very conflicted on this book. I really struggled to get into the book: the first chapter really drew me in, but the first part of the book was much more difficult because it was much more removed and slower-paced than I typically enjoy. The characters and world building are built out so beautifully, which almost makes it hard to focus on Jimenez’s story at times. However, this is an incredibly written book and I guess I’m just left stewing in my own emotions.
