I keep thinking about how to describe this book and the word that comes most to my mind is
“Quiet”. Even after the tragic ending of their romance the disposition of the main character is quiet. Just quietly accepting their fate. I wanted them to get angry and fight harder but of course their acceptance made it that much more heartbreaking. What was expected of them was so ingrained in them that even when they really understood it all, it didn't matter. It's the only way of life they've ever known. I have a lot more to say but the thoughts are very disjointed so I'll spare you
