5.0

I was completely absorbed in this book. It was simple and easy to read yet I felt transported to another time and place entirely. I loved the fantastical, magical realism and fairytale elements and the raw emotions. About halfway through the book I read one of the reviews inside the cover that said if Willa Cather and Gabriel Garcia Marquez combined wrote a book this would be it and that’s the best way to summarize it. Pure magic.
