A Nameless Witch by A. Lee Martinez
4.0
This book took me a LONG time to read. Not because it wasn't good, but rather because it was delightfully pleasant. This book was an afternoon snack that I just spread out over the course of many months, sampling between the heftier meals of my other reads. It's a little weird to think that a book about a cannibalistic witch was the light and fluffy pallet cleanser that I was able to use between the meatier courses, but there you go.
This is a solid 4 stars for me. It was very good, and I enjoyed it a lot. I loved the whimsical fairytale way that it was told, and I think it accomplished exactly what it set out to do. I could definitely seeing myself rereading this in the future. Although I read this as a physical book I would like to pick it up as an ebook, just so that I can have it at hand whenever I need to just.. step over and read a bit. On my next read through I'd also like to give a go for annotating it, or at least keeping a running list of quotes. This is easily the most quotable book I've read in recent memory.
For sure would definitely recommend, especially for those looking for a light-hearted tale and those who enjoy the type of writing style associated with ye olde faerie tales of yore, as it be.
