Absolutely amazing I have devoured everything by T. Kingfisher in the last few days and she has quickly established herself as one of my favorite authors. She has an amazing writing style and her romance is top tier.

The worldbuilding is great, I can't wait to learn more about the world of the White Rat. All her characters are so unique, relatable and fascinating. I loved Halla, really, so so much! I really love how T. Kingfisher writes unique heroes and heroines. Most of her MC are not 20 year old supermodels who are uber-powerful, but that only makes them more fascinating. I related so much to Halla and how she questions everything in the worst moments possible.

Also, I just love how effortlessly inclusive Kingfisher's world is. There is a non-binary character and it's not a big deal and I loved it so much because the point of the character wasn't to be non-binary, but there was a fascinating character, which happened to be nb and that is, in my opinion the best kind of represantation.
