Belladonna by Anbara Salam
3.0
emotional lighthearted slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Complicated

A bit of a slow burn with not quite the ending that I wanted but I’m always intrigued with how queerness is portrayed in historical fiction and I think this did a great job with being subtle yet powerful on that aspect.
