The Bear and the Nightingale by Katherine Arden
adventurous
dark
mysterious
tense
slow-paced
- Plot- or character-driven? A mix
- Strong character development? Yes
- Loveable characters? It's complicated
4.5
This was atmospheric, mystical, and magical and I loved it. The beginning was slow so that is why it’s not a full 5 stars but if you are looking for a fairytale-esque historical fiction/fantasy book with a strong FMC, complicated family dynamics, beautiful descriptions, and folklore then I would definitely recommend this one.
