dark sad tense slow-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Loveable characters? It's complicated
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes

3.25

The story is written with care and it’s obviously well researched, but god, it’s so bleak!

I really enjoyed the folklore elements and the added touch of naming each chapter for a “medicinal” plant.
