Foul days is a fantasy homage to Slavic folklore intertwined with new day fantasy. The world that Genoveva Dimova paints takes me not to some fantastical world, but to one to where I think it is set here in this world and that this place is real, at least once in the past. it was thrilling to step into a world heavily inspired be Eastern Europe and Slavic lore, as I myself a, not too familiar with the concepts. I enjoyed the two main characters and the quirky banter, their dynamic felt natural, and not forced. While some of the plot points were predictable, This book felt like a refresher in the realm of YA fantasy, as I fell too many concepts get rehashed over and over. My biggest issue was probably the canter of the main characters inner thoughts seemed a tad inconsistent through out the novel, but given this is the authors first novel, I feel I can let it slide. I can't wait for the next installment, as it is coming soon. The ending made me want more, and that's a good thing.
