a lovely, atmospheric read 🐎 I was interested in this book initially because it was a partial retelling of the Vasilisa the Beautiful folktale but the book also explores Russian house and nature spirits, which I really enjoyed. Arden's writing style is reminiscent of classical writing but in a way that is palatable, and she articulates a setting that is both cozy and unsettling.
