A review by mrsriorson69
The Everlasting by Alix E. Harrow
5.0
A beautiful all encompassing fairytale about a shy shaky scholar, a legendary lady knight, and an everlasting yew tree that transcends every obstacle in every single lifetime. Always.
That is the bare minimum summary. Worded so simply but does not even begin to scratch the surface on the layers of heart-wrenching prose and dynamics that this soul-crushing story entails. I am truly speechless. Like a blank book.
This is, and I do not say this lightly, one of the most beautiful love stories I have ever had the honor of reading. Once the story really takes off and you start to understand the way that it is going to go, there are still so many twists and turns that leave you breathless with tears in your eyes. I don’t want to say anymore because I hope readers get to also go in blind and let this story take you away.
This is one of those books that you read once and think about for the rest of your life. There were so many quotes that I highlighted that have me reeling and tossing over in my brain thinking about the parallels to the climate we currently live in. It is truly such a privilege to be alive at the same time as Alix E. Harrow and to get to read this beautiful work of art. It feels like a dream. I don’t feel worthy reading this book with my mortal eye balls.
Fans of Divine Rivals, The Secret Life of Addie LaRue and The Song of Achilles would absolutely adore the everliving soul out of this book.
It was nothing but the greatest honor of my life to get to read this book and I cherished every single word. Thank you to Alix E. Harrow, Tor Publishing Group and NetGalley for this eARC. I will absolutely cry forever.
