Heaven's Net Is Wide

Wish I would have read this book before [b:Across the Nightingale Floor 77160 Across the Nightingale Floor (Tales of the Otori, #1) Lian Hearn https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1438630231l/77160.SY75.jpg 161332] as it does a great job of filling in the backstory of all the adults and rolls right into the beginning of that book. Thankfully I've read this immediately after and the details are still fresh in my mind to connect the characters' stories.Nicely written, doesn't tangent off the main story the author wants to tell [I hate when authors do that!], there's some jumping back and forth between the several parallel stories but it's pretty easy to catch back up.
