When They Burned The Butterfly
by Wen-yi Lee
Thank you to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
Oh my God, I love this so so much! The lesbian rep was beautiful and heartbreaking. All of the girls felt fleshed out and real. Adeline was such a captivating main character. Despite being sheltered her whole life, she’s not naïve. She’s intelligent and witty and craves more. Her character arc? Deranged– and I loved it. Tian was probably my favorite character, my beloved hard ass that cares so much for the people around her that she’s willing to sacrifice herself over and over. I loved the way that the butch/femme dynamic was portrayed. The plot was well paced, and I couldn’t put the book down. I need a physical copy. I need my friends to have a copy. I’m obsessed.
