Wow wow wow, everytime I read book of a thousand day I always remember hiw f*cking amazing it is. I think since I love Hales series (Princess Academy and Books of Bayern) so much, that I forgot about this perfect stand alone novel of a lesser known fairy tail set in a fantasy world inspired by ancient Mongolia.
This books makes me laugh and cry. And Omg I am in love with Khan Tegus!!!! He is officially #2 in fav Shannon Hale love interests behind my OG man Finn.
I think Shannon’s third person writing in her other books is top tier and is one of the reason why her works are so lyrical and beautiful. But this frist person style was so intimate and moving that it made me rethink the way I judge frist va third person narratives particular in ya fantasy.
This was probably maybe my 4th time reading this book and I’m so glad I picked back up on my Shannon Hale books.
