adventurous dark emotional mysterious tense

3.75

“By the gods—sea, fire, and women are the three evils.” (p. 443).
Dark throughout, but a happy ending.

Not sure how to rate this one. Got the rec from a fave booktoker and not unhappy about it. I did devour it (an easier read and enjoyed the pacing and mythology). That said, I struggled in places: the plot meandered, supporting characters weren't well-developed, and was rather disappointed in the anticlimactic ending.
