A review by whatsmacksaid
The Wood Wife by Terri Windling

5.0

ETA on 5/20/2019: it's even better the second time around. It's not a quick read by any means, but I love it. I don't reread many books these days, but I will probably read The Wood Wife a third time.

This was SO GOOD. I loooooved it, it's going on my reread list.

There was one off-colored joke about a character's ex-boyfriend wanting to wear her bras, though. That was unfortunate. The rest is just amazing. I loved how Windling wove Davis and Naverra through the modern art history scene, and also how she incorporated painting, sculpture, music, and poetry all throughout the novel. Absolutely breathtaking.

I highly recommend The Wood Wife.
