This one was okay. Every since I read #deathless I‘ve been reading a lot of Russian folklore/ fairytales. While this one certainly had those elements (not just Russian folklore), it didn‘t live up to my expectations. It was far more about love and finding yourself than exploring the stories. One of the sisters had their viewpoint in verse.. Not sure why.
I think it is also more YA than adult. #fairytales #jew #judaism #bear #swan

IndyHannaJones You should read Egg and Spoon. I love Baba Yaga in it. I loooove Russian based fantasy stories.![[tagged book]](https://image.librarything.com/pics/litsy_webpics/icon_taggedBook@3x.png)
Egg and Spoon 5y
Egg and SpoonIndyHannaJones I liked that Laya's story was in verse. She's a swan, flighty and light. Her perspective would've been the same. 5y
Conservio @IndyHannaJones I loved Deathless! Have you read The Bear and the Nightingale? Is Egg and Spoon an anthology or a novel? 5y
IndyHannaJones @Conservio I have indeed read the Bear and the Nightingale. The third book comes out soon. Egg and Spoon is a novel. 5y
