i blew through this book i read it in less than a day. historical fiction is a genre i enjoy especially when marginalized characters are given a voice in them, because they often did not receive a voice in the mainstream.

oh i adored this! it pulled me out of my reading slump and i loved all the characters so much they felt very fleshed out and like actual people. i’m so pleased about the bisexual main character that’s good representation and how all the other queer characters accept her.
