Red Sparrow

The detailed training scenes felt so authentic and intense. I'm curious whether the author drew from real intelligence practices or created them for the story.

The characters' loyalties and betrayals kept me guessing, but I wondered if the author was challenging the idea of good versus evil in espionage.

The story moves quickly but also pauses for moments of reflection. I wonder if this balance was intentional to mimic the unpredictability of spy work.
