Loved the narrator and worldbuilding so much.

I would have liked this more if the Other didn't turn out to be the actual enemy as yet another twist + if some of the mysteries were left unanswered at the end.

This is the most beautiful book I have read in a long time. It will be my go-to Christmas gift this year! As soon as I finished, I went back and started it again.
