Despite that, Jordan's heritage and how the political landscape of the time will affect her are barely addressed by. Her paper cutting magic and the magic realism aspects could have been used more prominently and the queerness of, especially Nick and Jordan, could have been explored in more detail. It felt as if still we only got them as a couple who were each fascinated by Daisy and Jay, rather than madly in love with them. I get it was supposed to feel confusing but I think it didn't translate that well into the text.
The interpretation about the souls was interesting, thou.

I took away 1 star because I do wish there was more background of the magic, more explanation of the limits of it and what it can and cannot do. However, I can also understand that leaving it a bit of a mystery might add more whimsical feeling to the book, but I guess I just didn't appreciate it.
