I enjoyed this one much more than the previous book. Nghi Vo's writing is once again breath-taking and each time I love the narrator more as well as the morally grey, but passionate, sapphics that exist in their stories.

Absolutely loved this 
It’s super reliant on/centered around storytelling which as the kid of a storyteller was really special and I appreciated 
Also the rep was 🥺 so nice and seeing a character using they/them without it being a big deal and a super casually included sapphic romance was super nice

No one told me this was a lesbian love story between a tiger and a scholar and I would like, for the record, to state had I known I would have already had this on my shelf, surrounded by dried flowers and incense, thanks.

Love this book, love the character complexity, the sensuality, and the theming of hunger. It was so good that I read it twice, and then read it out loud to my girlfriend the next week.
