Feels like an overblown mystery surrounded in pessimism and climate change. The third act had twist after twist after twist. I enjoyed the way the story unfolded through the various voices, but I didn’t necessarily enjoy reading every POV. I did love the setting though and all its fauna especially. There were some fantastical descriptions of the flora and skies, alongside the eerie essences sitting at the edge of our POV visions, which I actually really enjoyed. At the core it is a story of parents and children, and the intergenerational trauma of childhood and coming-of-age moments in a world that is burning, drowning or being beaten at every moment.
