The Thorn and the Blossom - Theodora Goss - received free from the LibraryThing Early Reviewers program
This book is beautifully designed. The clever accordion binding allows one to read the story from the point of view of either of the main protagonists. The artwork is fantastic.
The story is a sort of mystical romance story. I was hoping for something more explicitly fantasy. I also find the protagonists unbelievable, in what they give up and where they end up at the end of the story. The ending is also ambiguous, which is not something I care for.
Year's total: 23
