    My third time reading this since it’s come out, I wish I could reread it again for the first time. Character personality traits (socially awkward, autistic-coded, gay, giving too much of yourself, fighting against and with your base nature) are so relatable despite absurd circumstances characters are put through. I think when authors write autistic coded characters they tend to make us seem like we 10000% lack empathy and this really struck a balance and examined love, empathy, & that social disconnect

    Most of my Kingfisher books have been 5 star reviews. Then thornhedge and hemlock & silver came out and those were okay, still solid 3.5 stars for me. But I was worried that we would be stuck at a 3.5 star read from now on. No need to worry, this book is fantastic. Dynamic characters, tons of lore, great timing for reveals - plot points take just long enough to keep you engaged without forgetting about them. I just read it a few weeks ago and already want to reread it.
