A story about depression and anxiety with lots of magic and flowers! This book is widely regarded as a cozy fantasy but there is some gore and darkness to it. The book overall is great, the only problem I found with it is the explanation of why her power was so erratic, it does not fit well with the magic system.
Big kudos for representation and for characters that make mistake but find redemption and forgiveness!
