The depiction of class and societal expectations felt so authentic. I wonder if historical research played a big role or if it was influenced by personal experiences.

The connection between the characters was palpable, but some moments seemed to rush past the emotional build-up. Was this a stylistic choice or a pacing decision?

The vivid descriptions made the world come alive, and I’m curious whether the author drew from real places or constructed it entirely from imagination.
