This is so beautifully written. Second book in the Singing Hills Cycle, still following Chih, the cleric as they gather stories of the realm, this time encountering tigers on the road and needing to recite a tiger's story for the chance to not get eaten.
Like the first book, this was dreamy and kind of cozy despite there being horror elements in the story-within-a-story. The writing is gorgeous, the world building is amazing, I loved the characters and not a word was wasted.
