Going insane over Fairest reread I love when beloved books from days of yore are as good as I remember
#gail carson levine

#daisyreads
#Ivi and Aza as parallels both driven by their insecurity!!!
#the characters actually acting within their cultural/religious framework!!!
#the little worldbuilding touches like the symmetrical names and words!!!!
#I think this book was a big contributor to my love of political/palace-intrigue flavored fantasy come to think of it
#also Ivi is SUCH a compelling character the way that she's so clearly vulnerable and incompetent yet has such a hold over people
#the way that Aza's terrified of her but also half in love with her
#but also! she's not even that smart! we see through her and yet can't outsmart her!
#And also the way Aza/Ijori works pretty well as a pairing bc almost immediately they are cast as a team
#first in the composing game as a kind of foreshadowing to their larger shared task of Managing Ivi
#Literally the part I'm at now they barely know each other
#but they're already working together to try to keep Ivi from upending the kingdom on day 1 of her being in charge lol
#in a very practical and mutually respectful kind of way
#but anyway bi Aza is canon to me
#this book is so well crafted. read and respect it or die by my blade
