Maybe I would like it more if I had actually read King Lear?? I'm not sure.

I don't think enough people are talking about the "love triangle" in this. I don't ship poly relationships generally. It's not my thing, but this book made me desperately wish for a happy ending where all of them could be together because they clearly all loved each other.
The thing that dropped this down half a star for me was the final scene. I don't think it made sense for the characters without at least a little bit more explanation or time.
