It reminded me of C. S. Poe's Memento Mori series but with wolves.

It was cute 🩷
Don't know which one was first but this has a very similar plot to The Favor by Suzanne Wright.
It was alright, but I can't with describing her parts as "her folds" 🤢

I really wanted to like this book. I've heard so many wonderful things about it, but it just didn't click with me.
It made the transition from adolescence to adulthood look like waking up from a fairy tale, which I agree. However, the structure and prose was boring and I couldn't grasp the "grandiosity" of Meaulnes. Everything was so boring that Meaulnes looked exciting by default.

A fever dream in purgatory. I really like
Mexicans' familiarity with death.

This is a good birth control advertisement 😅
Trauma galore. It gives The Babadook vibes.

Apparently I'm one of the few that actually bought this book and didn't receive it as an ARC 😅
I liked the prose but this feels so much like just a step into another book.
Cassius and Muninn's relationship was a bit rushed at the end. It felt like they hated each other for like 80% of the book and then zas! They want each other.
I did appreciate the representation.

Atmosphere builds up slowly but nicely.
I could relate to the feminine ambivalence of fearing motherhood but also fearing not being a mother.
"The horror of giving birth can't be captured" YES!

Ancient methods of keeping women out of power still being employed today, what a shock 😒
I wanna raise my voice even more now.

On the positive: ▪️ It blends fantasy and Gothic elements very well. The castle is its own entity. ▪️ It also questions tradition and rituals.
On the negative: ▪️ Too fkn dense. It takes some time to get the pace of it. ▪️ It felt like it would never end. It drags.
