While I liked the idea of this book, fighting against a world were there was unnecessary hatred; there were just so many moments that made no sense with how the belief system worked. Not to mention how did all the Northerns, Southerners, Easterners, and Westerners all agree all girls who bleed gold were demons but girls who bleed red were valued?? Youâre telling me not one person out of all the different ideologies each group had that they didnât noticed an issue with their system??
I donât know if itâs because I donât care for first person point of view or just how the book was written but I didnât get attached to any of the characters either which is really disappointing. However, the world building was easy to understand for a fantasy book. It was simple and to the point.
My biggest questions though is how did no one bleed before they were sixteen?! Women were not allowed to do âstrenuousâ work because they could NOT bleed before they turned sixteen years old?!
Youâre telling me:
- No one lost their baby teeth until sixteen then?
- No one tripped and skinned their knee as a kid?
- No one had any medical issues until then?
- No one had bodily functions like periods until the minute of their sixteen birthday?
- That there werenât any accidents in their everyday life that happened UNTIL they turned sixteen?
