Minor: Suicide
Use of the g-slur for travelling people, racist sentiments and stereotypes about them expressed during Reynaud’s POV chapters and encouraged among the other residents by him. I’ve tagged for suicide also but it’s less that and more voluntary, self-inflicted euthanasia. This character has an illness that she purposely ignores in favour of enjoying the last years of her life - I do not share this illness so can’t say if it’s a negative or positive portrayal.juliarchetype's review against another edition

The duo POV from Vianne and Father Reynaud were interesting to read as they view each other and the town and how each one wields some power through it all and it created a very beautiful and magical world especially from Vianne whereas Father Reynaud views the world in a practical light, there was a different kind of magic.
Harris wrote a very magical book that hooked me from the opening paragraph with its lush descriptions and details. The characters were an interesting mix of views and traits that were real and fantastical within the word building of this sleepy town.
Minor: Terminal illness, Violence, Toxic relationship, and Kidnapping
