The Poppy War by R.F. Kuang
4.0
adventurous dark tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Plot
Strong character development: Complicated
Loveable characters: Complicated
Diverse cast of characters: Yes
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

i feel like this is a book with a purpose is to Set Things Up later in the series, so pacing is weird at times. I loved part 1 and 3 but part 2 felt really slow at times, and we really needed development
with rins relationship with the cike. i think they were going for a found family vibe but i didnt really feel it
. also things dont get really dark until later in the book but when it gets dark it gets DARK
