Deserved all the awards. Right up there with Hild in terms of being focused on the human effects of Epic Fantasy events.
dendrophilia is no joke, man.
It took me a long time to read this book, I flew through a hundred or so pages and then I was bogged down for a really long time. And then that pattern repeated itself. There's a lot to like here: complex world building, a deep and intricate fairytale with its own logic, many indelible characters (especially the female ones). And yet, well, it may have been the wrong time, or I may be the wrong person. I'm not sorry I read it but... we are not a match this book and me.
