What a striking read! We follow a mother and daughter during pre/post civil war times. Rue was such a great character and watching her growth from a naive child to a powerful woman was wonderful. I enjoyed all of the magical imagery in this novel. The ending was so emotional and was the perfect wrap up to this stellar story.
