COMMUNITY REVIEWS

read the first few pages, really boring, and stopped. submitted by Tassos on December 3, 2021, 8:58pm sure does not belong in the "100 best books", PC NYT critics! Not even in the best "PC BS" 100 books!

Good book submitted by mollybshire on January 3, 2022, 3:59pm I found the setting to be interesting, it's not one that I know of nor read about often. I especially enjoyed the character development and growth of the main character.
