Wintersmith book review



There is something satisfying in finishing this book today. The sun  is out, the wind is gone and I can hear the birds singing. This was the perfect winter book - although I didn't intend for it to take me all winter to read it. I recently started college - so it has been hard to read for pleasure - but this book was definitely a pleasure to read.
I like to think that I savored it. I love the story! I love the witches and the Feegles and the gods and goddesses. I especially love the language and the symbolism used. I can't say too much about how much I love it - except that I know I will read it again, right after I read all the ones I missed before it!
Highly recommended book!

"Strength enough to build a home,
Time enough to hold a child,
Love enough to break a heart." p382
