"War for the oaks" by Emma Bull
First read: 19.09.2009
Comments: I started this a couple years ago, it’s only now, with a paper copy in hand that I have finished it. It was one of those books I was extremely excited about reading but which lost me with lush descriptions. In fact, I got sidetracked with "The Hunger Games" this time too, and I had a fifth of it to finish. It was nice but I wouldn't recommend it, the ending in particular seemed raw and in need of more complexitities, it's way too unsubtle this way and not as strong and moving as it obviously pretends to be.
