Silver in the Woods was super out of my comfort zone. I didn’t look to see how long it was before I started reading it. I was disappointed that it was so short, but, as I’ve never read anything like it before, it ended up being a good thing. I don’t know that it would have kept my interest if it had been much longer. I’m typically a thriller and historical fiction fan, so this was a nice introduction into something more mystical.
The slight romance was such a tease! I wanted more! The romance was honestly what kept me reading. There was so much of this book that I didn’t really understand, probably because I’m not used to reading mystical fantasy, so the romantic undertones were easier for my brain to latch onto.
Tesh is a brilliantly skilled writer. Her words were beautiful to read, the mystery well constructed, and the characters easy to love.
I enjoyed this book enough that I plan to read the sequel, though it’s not at the top of my list to recommend to others. As far as “out of your comfort zone” books go, I’m glad I read this. I probably won’t think about it for years to come, though.
If you’re looking for mysterious fantasy with a Springtime vibe that you can finish very quickly, this book is for you!
