Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Marillier
4.75
adventurous emotional hopeful tense medium-paced
Plot or Character Driven: A mix
Strong character development: Yes
Loveable characters: Yes
Diverse cast of characters: No
Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

What a sweet book! I was indignant on Jena's behalf for a majority of the story, but adored the whimsical characters (a frog!! as a main character!!) and setting. Everything about Wildwood Dancing felt properly fit together (the cover, the traditional Romanian lore, the characters' quirks and details) and gave the sense of reading an old fairytale.
