I was pleasantly surprised by this book considering I went looking for a certain trope and found a recommendation for this on a random reddit page from a couple years ago. The world is explored so vastly and I can tell that there was so much exploration and research done here to supplement this different cultures explored. Each was so vibrantly described, I felt like I was living it myself. The main character relationship was rocky at first, questionable in the middle but then I really grew to like how they each helped the other grew in new ways. I also really liked the long and drawn out prologue, along with the call back at the end of the story.
