— I have so many questions.
About 100 pages into this book I was super struggling, more than usual with fantasy/sci-fi books. But I just decided to go with it and decided that any questions I had would either be answered or didn’t matter. I’m so glad I didn’t give up despite the confusion and my lack of understanding on literally anything in this because it all came together incredibly. I love this. This I the most unique story I’ve ever read and I’m thrilled.
