Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
5.0
dark emotional mysterious sad fast-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: No

It definitely reads a bit simple but it gives off oral fable vibes, the ones that always change a little with every generation. The descriptions of South America were enriching, you could really picture yourself there. 5 stars because of the storytelling and the bittersweet ending.
