i never would have read this if not for it being a book club pick, but i don’t regret it.
MAJOR content warning for societal homophobia of the sort you would expect from a puritan nation in the 1600s.

I do wish we knew more about the miniaturist themself. Their inclusion in the story brings tension and mystery so it feels unfortunate that it’s left as a loose end. But given the resolution of other things, I’m not that mad about it.
