Not at all what I was expecting with a title like that, but this book absolutely blew me away. The gilded edges of this story peel slowly away from the plot in gorgeously detailed layers as Amaya and you, the reader, figure out what exactly is going on. There's an air of shady mystery, an atmosphere of deception and double-crossing, a slick of decadence that sticks to the story like glitter, and I loved every moment of it. I hate to do comps, but since that's the publisher's bread-and-butter now, here's a few: If you loved the gold-leaf-covered-up grime of Six of Crows and the personal-stakes-that-get-much-much-bigger of Heart of Iron and the enemies?-to-lovers??-ish??? of Wicked Saints all combined with a revenge-fantasy-come-true with characters deep as the waters they dive through, you're going to love this one.
