I really wanted to like this book because I think the attempt to give the heroine more power is a great concept. However, it just didn't work for me because Story became the "bad guy" and I think that was the wrong word choice. I think the "bad guy" is really societal expectations and by using Story the author lost me. One of my favorite quotations is, "If stories come to you, care for them. And learn to give them away where they are needed. Sometimes a person needs a story more than food to stay alive.
âBarry Lopez, in Crow and Weasel"
