Evike was a frustrating mc with a juvenile pov. The romance was predictable, uncomfortable, and shallow. The folk lore elements were fascinating but often felt very poorly incorporated into the plot. I might give finishing it another try someday.

It’s an impressive feat to tell a story that’s both masochistic and romantic at its core. Évike is a tough woman to connect to but as she embarks unwillingly on this long, forested trek, I grew to love her spirit, her grit. She will fight to belong with every breath, all the while struggling with her dual identities and outcast status. This incredible world is fantasy but feels ancient and true. Monsters are everywhere—human and otherwise—be it wolf or woodsman or the gods themselves; fairytale horror at its finest.
