I had been saving this book for a time when I could focus since I’d kept reading reviews that claimed this was confusing. I am so sorry I waited because it was perfectly paced, had perfectly subtle word building, and just enough mystery. I kept thinking “oh it should have ended there!” And then reading one more section and saying it again.
