Gods of Jade and Shadow by Silvia Moreno-Garcia
5.0

This book broke my heart, you know? But it happened in the best way possible. Moreno-Garcia is, to me, a literary master. She makes each page feel like it’s own story, the sentences bound together with prose both poetic and profound. And within it all, a captivating story about a woman whose heart makes her more of a hero than she believes she has a right to be. This is the kind of story that stays with you, lingers in the corners of your mind and surprises you at the most unexpected moments. Its perfectly bittersweet nature speaks to the human condition in a way that both haunts and delights. So good.
