starrysteph 's review for:

Nona the Ninth by Tamsyn Muir
4.5
dark emotional funny mysterious reflective tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I love you, Nona! I love you, Noodle! 

And I loved all the (as unreliably narrated as it was) insight into pre-Resurrection events. So much soul-swapping fuckery and so many Biblical themes/swirling theology and curious little details. Nom nom nom. Ah ah ah. 

CW: murder, body horror, gore, guns, war, eating disorder, grief, genocide, fire, colonization, vomit, self harm, animal death, xenophobia, dysphoria, ableism, panic attacks
