A review by bookly_reads
Deathless, by Catherynne M. Valente
2.0
are the straights okay
(I'm being flippant, and my star ratings are about how I feel when I'm reading a book, and not necessarily a reflection of how skilled I think an author is, how good the prose, how layered and well-executed the ideas. There's a lot going on in this book but I was too distracted worrying for the straights. I'd honestly just rather read a history book for the things I enjoyed about Deathless, because the rest reminded me too much of Fifty Shades of Gray.)
