The vibes and the writing in this book were great and sometimes a little gross. I loved the atmosphere and the characters, I just feel like they needed a little more development.

This was so darn cute! Like a Studio Ghibli movie, similar to Howl’s moving Castle but with polish mythology. I loved it!

This book took me back to stories I learned as a child. Now, that I'm far away from home, it gives me some closure. Beautiful writing and amazing story!
