frankly one of the most atmospheric books i’ve ever read, one of my favorite historical fictions ever, and one of my favorite fictional pairings ever (god i love Ursa and Maren. i love them so much i want them to be happy)
this started off very slowly, but once Ursa and Absolom are introduced it picks up.
i know ive already said this but THIS BOOK IS SO ATMOSPHERIC it feels like i was there in norway by the ocean with these characters
