I might have words later, but I don't have them now. This book was incredible. Also, incredibly heavy.

Nethercott is a masterful storyteller in this book. I always love books about storytelling or the power of myths, legends, history, and folklore. This book was a masterful combination of history and mystic. It’s been a while since one book has made me so utterly sad in one moment and so hopeful and joyous in another. There is a lot of very dark and difficult topics covered, but I feel Nethercott weaves these important aspects of the story in with the magic and myth well. I still felt the full weight of the painful and horrific history.
