What a fascinating and complex little book. Emira is a fantastic character, and while the other characters around her are fairly infuriating, they produce an interesting dynamic from which Emira can emerge at the end. All in all, I really liked it, and the audiobook provided a great pace for the whole thing. The last couple of lines are absolutely amazing.
