I don't quite know how to express how much I loved this book, how special it felt to read something that has so many bits and pieces that felt like me.
As an artist, I deeply feel the need to leave a mark, to be remembered.
As a witch, I found myself in Estele, worshipping the old gods, finding them in the woods, in the moonlight and in the seasons.
As someone who has had my fair share of trauma and mental health issues, who has always felt everything so deeply, I found myself in Henry's storms.
This book is so special too because there's little bits that meet my own history like Addie sharing a birthday with my late grandmother, or the story taking roots not far from where I live, and while I started this book last year and forgot it after I put it down, 60 pages in, I believe it was because I wasn't meant to read it until now, when I would truly need it.

The book goes back and forth through time, covering her 300 year existence and the present, where she has finally found someone who remembers her. But why can Henry remember her?
What defines the human experience? What does it mean to leave your mark? How important is being remembered? What is living?
The beginning was a little slow, but once it picked up it was a fast paced page turner. The ending foe Henry was a little overly meta, but otherwise I found the plot twists surprising and satisfying.
Moderate: Suicidal thoughts and Suicide attempt
Minor: War
