Seasparrow
by Kristin Cashore
Lots of trigger warnings - the book itself is really a study of trauma and healing (there's no skipping over that . . . it's threaded throughout the whole story and there are near-constant descriptions of extremely traumatic experiences)
I'M PRETTY SURE I HAVE NEVER LOVED A CHARACTER IN A BOOK AS MUCH AS I LOVE HAVA! I LOVE HAVA!
This is a gorgeous book. Just gorgeous. Incredibly moving (I basically sobbed the entire time I read it).
It beautifully connects to all the other Graceling books, and shows Cashore's growth as a writer (I really loved the first book, but even so, this book is SO much better).
I really liked Hava in Winterkeep, and it was so wonderful to be able to discover her thoughts and feelings ... and realize that her inner life perfectly fits the way she spoke and acted in that book . . . but there's a whole world inside Hava that I couldn't guess at! (Maybe because NO ONE - including the other characters - can really guess at it)
I feel so grateful to have been able to live inside Hava's world. I truly, truly love this character.
And I adore this book. One of the best I've read - in the top ten of hundreds.
