30 year old Persephone Aim uncovers a magical object from her family from WWII. Her over-looked mother tries to take it for herself. While Persephone decides whether to keep living in the past or move forward into the future. I really liked this book, though it was quite short, I felt as if I was reading a series of chapter books. The plot kept me cheering for Persephone and adknowledging the fact that her grandmother was really something.

Shoutout to Meerkat Press for this ARC!

Starts gently and almost slow, but holy cow that was intense.

This was a novella that fit a category for read harder this year. It was also nominated for a couple awards and was easily purchased on kindle. I had no clue what this was about, but I knew it was at least magical realism if not full blown fantasy. So when things seemed normal I knew something was up, and then things started to get weird and I liked it. I wanted a bit more of a backstory or maybe another twist at the end. I felt satisfied when it was done, but not overwhelmingly excited about the story. It was a perfect length which I enjoyed. I'd recommend it if you are in for something a bit weird and don't mind a short read.
