mara_miriam's review against another edition
3.0
This book is written in a particular dialect, which is most certainly not my own, although it is a book that needs to be read aloud. It is a lovely fairy tale with fascinating historical roots.

5.0
Read as an adult and I loved how Hamilton incorporated folklore into this story and her pantheon. The plot was unpredictable, and I enjoyed following the characters without being able to guess what would happen to them. There was a lot of history covered in this book, and I learned some things. I live in the same region as this book was set and am into plants, so I knew the plants that they foraged for were actually edible, which I thought was cool.
