Jan. 6th, 2016 06:23 pmRecently I got a mysterious urge to reread Daughter of the Forest, the first book in Juliet Marillier's Sevenwaters series. I read these books when they came out and the sum total of what I remembered about them is:
- six swans fairytale?
- vaguely Celtic?
- romance of some sort?
None of which is inaccurate, although I did not remember ... that the central romance was between a grown adult and a fourteen-year-old girl .....
( I also did not remember all the super gendered suffering, although, I mean, I guess some of it is kind of written into the Six Swans story )
