This was a masterful piece, I was so immersed in the world and lives of the characters. The experience of chosen family is probably the best I’ve ever read. It is magical, inspiring, gripping and sweet. A big commitment of a book for me but it was constructed in a way I couldn’t stop being obsessed with it.
