Itās probably irrelevant, but iām having some landscape change in my visualisation of this story. Pre Misakiās past, the scenery in my imagination is of Avatar-style animation. Post Misakiās past, however, the atmosphere changed to DC style animation. Honestly, itās probably the name Robin that triggers this (itās giving Young Justice). :)

Was intrigued into reading this as the story was set in Malaysia. However, the protagonist felt a little lacklustre in her character ā for someone who is supposedly an accomplished woman in her 40ās, she reads as if sheās in her 20ās. But Iām glad that she did get her happy ending somehow even though it felt like a curveball. This book tackles on some sensitive issues such as racism, religion and misogyny but itās touched quite lightly I would say. I know that a lot of unsavoury things happened to her, but I donāt have massive amount of sympathy for her as my first introduction to her is that sheās a mistress. In my humble opinion, cheating was always a choice that was made consciously regardless of their reasoning. One thing that I do agree is that religion is always a personal matter and shouldnāt be enforced upon anyone, and it shouldnāt be used as a tool for personal gains.
