Tiia✨️ Book review ✨️
*no spoilers*
𝗕𝗹𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗢𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝗕𝗿𝗶𝗴𝗵𝘁 𝗛𝗮𝘃𝗲𝗻 - 𝗠.𝗟. 𝗪𝗮𝗻𝗴
🩸For twenty years, Sciona has devoted every waking moment to the study of magic, fuelled by a mad desire to achieve the impossible: to become the first woman ever admitted to the High Magistry at the University of Magics and Industry. When Sciona finally achieves her ambition and becomes a highmage, she finds her challenges have just begun.🩸
Amazing, absolutely amazing 🖤😭
This book is so full of misogyny and racism, I fumed with rage on multipal occations. The amount of social commentary in this book is almost overwhelming. How can a person ram all this in one book and it still doesn't feel like force-feeding. At the same time it's right there in your face, but still so subtle it doesn't take away from the story itself. I have to admire M.L. Wang's skills as a writer for this.
The book is layered thick with it's themes, but not at the cost of plot or the characters. The plot is a rollercoaster, I had no idea what was coming my way until it was too late. I gasped out loud at the point of no return.
Characters are well-built, they have flaws and feel real. And the amount of meaningful conversations these characters have, ah I love it.
The ending is absolutely the right choice for this heartwrenching story. It is ultimitely sad, but with a hint of hope.
This book is so good, I would recommend it for everyone. But for the sake of this review...
... I recommend if you like:
🦋 fantasy with hard magic system
🩸 heavy social commentary
😭 bad vibe books
⚖️ actions and consequences
