A quick read/listen! The magical realism was confusing at times but otherwise it was creative.

I've never read anything like this before. It's so magically written, creative, amazing, confusing at times, but wonderful.

The magical realism of this book was really intense and beautifully done. Gorgeous prose and a really intense story.

Read it all in one day because it was interfering with my ability to adult. Gripping and fun fantasy, but also sad and true (and strong and hopeful) underneath that.

The style of the narrative was brilliant! The story was fun and empowering, but the best part of the book, was the main character, and her way of seeing the world. She was so real but completely mythical.
