The Drowned Woods by Emily Lloyd-Jones

3.0

This story was pretty good, it took until a little over halfway to feel like anything was really happening but the ending was great. It did not feel like a folktale necessarily, but it was still whimsical. I loved Fane as a character so much. And I’m a sucker for happy endings so the epilogue touched my heart greatly.
Since this story is based on Welsh legends, I assume most of the names were Welsh or welsh inspired, I would have benefitted greatly from a pronunciation guide because I’m sure I pronounced nothing properly
