i had some concerns about the female characters of the story fading into passivity and lazy, stereotypical roles given that that could easily be justified by the setting and premise of the book. but I’m thoroughly surprised and amused by how much power and agency the women have had so far. It almost feels like they’re the backbone and are responsible for the story pushing forward. they have these men dancingggg

i actually appreciate and like the jumping around (perspectives, time periods, etc)

love a lot of the themes being touched on so far too (balance, ambition, family, death, the supernatural)

whaaaaaaat

what an interesting young man

well that took a dark turn

idk what just happened, i was kinda zoning out

so profound

im seatedddddd
