There was a lot that I liked in this book - the main character and how she pushes back against tradition to be herself, the world and its gods and rituals, and that events that seemed predictable mostly turned out not as I expected. It was very long, though, and it frustrates me when a character keeps refusing the help you know they need (though I think that is also a very human thing to do). I like that the ending felt complete but there is also the possibility for a second book.
