I haven't read a long book in awhile, but this one was quite lovely. We hop between 6+ PoV's, spending major time in about 5 of them. This had the potential to be overwhelming, but Tara Sim managed it nicely. It's honestly really hard for me to pick a favorite character, though it might be a toss-up between Taesia and Nik. Or maybe Julian. Agh! I did run into some confusion at times with the world and certain characters, but I think that was fully intentional. It was twisty, dynamic, and full of representation across sexualities, races, and neurodivergence. This really reads like an epic D&D campaign tailored for a New Adult audience and I love it so much.
