Picked this out for a fun and light fantasy read. It really was easy enough to get through which I appreciate, though the bulk of the story fell flat in comparison to the beautiful and dynamic writing in the beginning and towards the end of the book.
While I found myself wishing the romance here could feel more believable and less like an obligated afterthought, I was impressed by how clearly and compassionately Thia's struggle with depression was depicted. The scenes with the crows and magic were so much fun to read.
