5.0

A FAR WILDER MAGIC is one of the most deeply touching and poignant books I can remember reading. It touches on religious/ethnic outcasts, family burdens, loneliness and longing, and the consequences of Magic not just on the caster… but on everyone around them, which makes for such rich worldbuilding. It also has a grumpy-and-sunshine romance that made my cold jaded heart skip a beat. For any hypothetical person who ever has romantic interest in me, this book will be required reading. I am Margaret, through and through.
