Good read if you're into horror, European folk tales, magic, and women with impressive archery skills. Not super character driven (as in, there's little to no character development in my opinion) but also somehow not plot driven (plot is almost incomprehensible). However, the book is big on ambiance, mood, sense of place... This book was /vibes only/ and I'm not mad at that.
