This book felt like a 90s anime… with the characters, the sci-fi plot and political intrigue that made up the storyline. A fun and wild ride through a very interesting, twisted world.
Moderate: Bullying, Confinement, and Injury/Injury detail

3.0
- underwhelming, could've been better
- not exactly homophobic, but i'm pretty sure they pulled a bury your gays
- the court intrigue was enjoyable, but lord it was not convincing?? the concept was there, but the execution??? sloppy
- where are the content warnings??? they should be on the cover ffs
- would-be slow-burn wasn't executed well either, and really doesn't make any sense
- also, i despise the narrative of strong female warriors becoming soft and shit for random men??? like what is the reason??
- and lastly, the sci-fi changing your appearance elements were low-key racist
Moderate: Alcoholism, Bullying, Death, Drug use, Genocide, Slavery, Gore, and Violence
Minor: Rape and Sexual assault
