In a sea of patriarchal fantasy and heteronormative romance, this book was a breath of fresh air. Everything about it was feminist in the best way. The female bi protagonist drove the story with her flaws center stage right next to her self-reckoning and strength. But her moments of weakness were just as exquisitely written. It is just so hard to put the perfection of this book into words. Where is the sequel? I need more of Bashardoust's writing.

I got pulled back, forth, and in every other direction by this story, in a good way. The main character's decisions could be seen as quite flip-flop-y, if you really don't like that kind of behaviour, but I saw it as learning the game of manipulation as she went, myself.
