Very interesting and mysterious. I liked how Leigh Bardugo can catch up with the common writing style and atmosphere of folk tales, this must've been a lot of work.

Kann Leigh Bardugo bitte nur noch russische Märchen erzählen? Ich weiß nicht, ob sie sich die selbst ausdenkt oder aus russischem Volksgut schöpft, aber ich finde sie richtig toll. Märchenhaft, bedrohlich und mit unerwarteten Wendungen. Ich will ein ganzes Märchenbuch davon!

Warning: This review has a SPOILER.
“It is always the same trap,” she said gently. “You longed for conversation. The bear craved jokes. The gray wolf missed music. The boar just wanted someone to tell her troubles to. The trap is loneliness, and none of us escapes it. Not even me.”
Just about the right amount of dark and yet still thrilling and interesting.

I loved this one - styled like a Grimm/fairy tale. But I figured out the plot pretty early. I will chalk it up to being a very well-read reader and hope that for the younger set they don't figure it out so quickly. Still very well crafted.
