What a phenomenal book!!! I loved Ava Reid’s debut novel The Wolf and the Woodsman. Her writing style is so vivid and stunning. This book is another example of her perfect world building and character development. ASID is full of whimsy and life. The world was so unique but felt so real. The mythology and religion of Llyr was captivating. I loved Effy and Preston so so much!!! This book was truly exceptional!
