I think this is easily going to be one of my favorite reads of the year. Based on an Ancient British murder folk ballad, Sistersong has a little bit of everything - Family, romance, battle, intrigue, subterfuge, magic, trans & gender fluid rep - and all written in beautiful, lyrical prose. The 3 siblings were all such strong characters with amazing arcs. It's always nice when there are multiple pov's and they're all enjoyable. I've read so many books lately that drag but even though this plot was character-based and I had no idea where the plot was progressing toward, I was fully engrossed from the beginning - I couldn't put it down! I alternated between the ebook and audio and the audio narrator did a wonderful job, especially with the songs.
