A story of grief and learning to let go with some eerie magical realism and a generations old cover up.
A great read overall, I especially loved the writing style. Was eerie and haunting but also beautifully executed. My only gripe with this was the overall pacing. There were definitely lulls in the story that I felt clogged up the timeline and could have been done without all together.

Overall a fun time. This is the perfect book to get someone out of a reading slump. Fast paced, funny, and packed full of twists and turns. The narrator for the audiobook was also one of the most entertaining narrators I’ve listened to thus far as she not only reads, but acts.

Not the book for me. I never looked forward to reading this after work for a multitude of reasons including clunky world building that was just info dumping to the max (I’ve read plenty of long, fantasy books so inexperience was not my issue) and dramatically slow pacing. The whole first part of the book it really felt like nothing actually happened. Youre going through the same motions every chapter with no movement to the plot. That pattern was continuing in Part 2 and I just was over it. Lastly I couldn’t deal with the idea of these characters having a “romance”. I know this isn’t marketed specifically as a romance book, but the MC does harbor romantic/caring feelings for her captor/torturer and it was feeling too Stockholm-ey for me.
