4.0

Beautifully done, frustrating beyond belief, and another testament to the skill of R.F. Kuang. While there were some VERY slow portions, as a whole, this novel was something that showed the vulnerability of humans in pain. The feelings of betrayal, shock, anger, and triumph elicited by this book are incredible.
