The Night of Baba Yaga by Akira Otani

4.0

---

This surprised me! I’m not usually a huge thriller/action reader but I really really enjoyed this! It was gripping and once I got into it I really didn’t want to put it down. This book has some fun references, good plot twists/shifts, and makes some great points about identity. It is obviously its own story and differs but it has some similarities to the Netflix show Blue Eye Samurai and I mean that in all the best ways as I love that show. This was a great read that had a good plot, fun gore, action, and some introspective thought provoking points. I’d definitely recommend giving this one a read. Well worth it.
[May come back and up this ones rating…still mulling over whether it’s a 4,4.5, or 5. It’s stuck in my head and left me satisfied.]
