I concluded that I am in entirely the wrong headspace to read about a girl child dealing with the complexities of fighting for their place against a person in power, and put the Keladry quartet aside. Instead, I looked at the pile of books that I'd read a bit of and put aside for 'later' and read Far from the light of heaven by Tade Thompson. So, yes, a lingering book, but not the one I was planning. I can't say I enjoyed it, but I'm glad I've read it.
