I understand why people gave Sybella her flowers back in the day; she's a stronger character than Ismae in which that her prickly nature, pessimism, and trauma feel more fleshed out. Her background in speckled throughout the book rather than completely stated in the introductory chapter, and her motives and perspectives on life feel justified with each layer that is sloughed off. Her romance with The Beast is also very cute!
