Just a few hours after finishing this book I already missed the characters and reading about Russia and Russian folklore
I wish there'd been an epilogue or something, I don't know... I just want to see Marya with her own little pony at Lesnaya Zemlya or getting to know more chyerti (especially little babie Ded Grib 💕) at the house by the lake. I want to know how Irina and Alyosha are doing! I want to see little Marya meet them. Show me Marya and Solovey's reunion 😭😭
Gimme a Marya spinoff book pls 🥺🥺🥺 I love her
Edit, after reflection
I'm in love with this trilogy and plan on owning all three books sometime soon. Everything about them was perfect for me: unfamiliar (to me) folklore and setting, slow-paced, effective emotional scenes, well developed characters and relationships between them, the perfect level of a romantic sub-plot, a babie mushroom boy. What more could I ask for?
