this book was so up my alley and i enjoyed it so much. here are my critiques, to get them out of the way: it was a bit fractured, a little repetitive, i wish there was a bit more time spent on some elements that got a bit muddled or felt underbaked. apart from those things, i found ‘understory’ to be so enriching and spellbinding. i feel like i understand the setting so well, and especially the author’s relationship to it. i got a bit teary at the end. it was an adventure, and surprisingly compelling. i’m glad to have spent my time on it.
