“I am yours, and so I will be your light and your laughter. I am yours, so open your eyes to look at me, and open your mouth so that I may kiss it. I am yours, I am yours, and nevermore will I leave.”

Sometimes two women love each other very much and it's wonderful and sometimes one of those women is a tiger and that's really beautiful and I just ough women

I gasped, I kicked my feet, I wished desperately for mammoths not to be extinct.

I LOVED this entry in the Singing Hills cycle, particularly for its execution of the story-within-a-story framework and how dryly humorous it feels. Vo's reflection on how stories are told - and by whom - is conveyed through a tense encounter between our loveably nerdy cleric and three sister tigers they've encountered during a northern journey into the mountains. A quick and exciting read that had me laughing throughout.
