Before reading it, my expectation was that it would be well-written, lyrical and fairy-tale-like. And, to tell you the truth, I respect and I can enjoy that kind of books, but I prefer a more straightforward, epic narration. Above all, I enjoy it when I get to care deeply about the characters, and that usually does not happen with lyrical/poetical books.
The book was better than I had expected, and I ended up loving it unreservedly. Yes, it's lyrical and well-written, but it also tells a rich, very human story, beautiful and terrible, and I cared a lot about the main characters. I highly recommend the novel and it certainly will not be the last one I read by this author.… (mere)
