House of Frost and Feathers: A Folkloric Fantasy by Lauren Wiesebron
slow-paced
2.5
2.5 ⭐️ Came for the folktale vibes, stayed for the sorcery and cute guinea pig fowl. The plot felt SO long-winded.
There was exactly 5 minutes at the 75% where it felt like the plot was finally coming together, only for it to immediately escalate enough to lose me again. For a story that gave the impression of being high stakes, it failed to keep me interested.
Of note, Daphne Kouma did a wonderful job narrating this book. She successfully created the witchy vibes I was expecting, which added to the atmospheric qualities of this read.
Thanks to NetGalley and HarperAudio Adult for this ALC in exchange for an honest review.
