Woven in Moonlight is beautifully written, has characters I adored, unexpected twists and a rich and complex world. This story is was inspired by Bolivian history and it was heart wrenching to hear about how the impact of war and the struggle for power have changed the nation. This story included details about the culture including food that made me drool as well as wonderful descriptions of art and clothing. It really made me want to learn more about the country and it’s history.

As for the book itself I loved Ximena. She is strong, clever, talented and relentless. Her character growth was also one of my favorite parts of the story. I wasn’t quite sure how I felt about Rumi at first but his character grew on me. Plus there’s a sloth. That may not be an important detail to you but it was a definite bonus for me.

I loved this story so much and inhaled it in one day!
