Now that I'm thinking more about it, the more upset I am about this book. There are hints of some really good stuff in here, but it's all brought down by how boring and tonally all over the place this book is.
Very petty comment I have: Every cover I've seen of this book has Rin wielding a bow... when her main weapon has always been a sword???
Graphic: Genocide, Xenophobia, War, Physical abuse, Rape, and Sexual violence
Moderate: Toxic friendship, Drug abuse, and Drug use
This book is very bog-standard YA until Part 3 of the book. One of the first chapters of part three has pretty graphic depictions of genocide. And the second or third chapter of Part 3 has an extremely graphic retelling of rape on a large scale.thereadingmarshmallow's review

There were parts of this book that I loved, and characters that I loved. I thought it was well written and so well done, but whether I want to actually spend my time reading about what I think is coming is a whole seperate question.
