Yes, agree that it was very different than other Ali Hazelwood's work and I find it okayish.
Loving this mostly bcs it was no brainer, stress free, happy ending read.
I don't mind the characters' personality actually. Sunshine bf (whose whole personality is loving and listing after her) and grumpy cold gf (who's socially inept, tense, strict).
They brought such a huge baggage and I like the way they talked through it.
The 'revenge plot' could've had better written.
And I don't think I'm a fan of insta-love, insta-lusty but yeah bearable ππΌ

OMFG WHAT WAS THAT????!
It's illegal for a book to be this good π the book finished me fr....
This is a book about female rage, a sort of coming of age (?), on how the so called "civilized" people built their power upon the taking, salvaging, emptying indigenous land.
This is a reflection of how our "modernity" works. And to take that literally....
A critic of academic world of how mostly they don't live up with the truth nor knowledge...
So neatly written, so atmospheric, I can see the red. When ML WANG wrote Blood Over Bright Haven she meant it. Mother is mothering π§πΎββοΈπ§πΎββοΈπ§πΎββοΈπ§πΎββοΈ
Of you're into high fantasy, dark academia, toppling down tyrannical government, while dealing with hope and internal conflict of your feelings.... READ THIS BOOK.
Thanks so much Del Rey Pub for the arc through Netgalley in exchange for honest review.

Oh I like this one better than The Twenty-Ninth Year.
The poem format is adding the nuance, and the genius on each sentence is top notch.
Please do check the TW before reading.
