I went back and forth in my enjoyment of the book, although it was interesting to read something set in the Aztec Empire. I sometimes found her word choice and descriptions simplistic, which felt jarring against the complexity of the world she had built and would therefore pull me out of the novel. The characters lacked depth for me, and so the emotional highs and lows the author wrote for them didn't register for me as intended.
