The Snow Child was easy to get into and kept my attention. It was very atmospheric.

I liked the fact that the neighbors were there to help them when they needed it most. The friendship aspect was so enjoyable!

The audiobook performance was good!

I saw another review use the word “bittersweet” and I think it’s a perfect description of this book. Deep sadness and loneliness paired with mystical wonder and tenderness. The ending did feel rushed a bit to me and I have some lingering questions, though I know that’s also the point.
