This had everything I love in historical fiction/fantasy and more. I loved the interplay of history and fantasy, the exploration of gender identity, and the magic that was so deeply rooted in the place and its people. On top of everything this book also had some really beautiful prose. One scene in particular really blew me away. This is definitely going to be one of my favourite books of the year.
