The Wood Wife by Terri Windling

5.0

If you live in the Sonoran desert and truly appreciate the natural aspects that make it so unique (or want to), you'll love this book. Windling perfectly taps into that undercurrent of magic and otherworldliness that permeates the desert. It's the familiar old Rincons, but with everything cranked up to a level of detail and saturation that makes it mystical. Beautiful, engrossing prose, and mysteries that unfold and reveal themselves in their own time - it's paced perfectly and was the perfect book to read with the windows thrown open and the flinty desert breeze blowing through.
