Winter by Ali Smith
3.75
slow-paced

This is a very whimsical story with magic and winter weather throughout. I enjoyed learning many wonderful and scary histories from this book, and liked the collection of characters, each with unique styles. I particularly loved the magic of the language - Smith was very clever with her wording and setting. However, the plot was somewhat confusing at times and the pace was very slow. Definitely one to read when in the strange reflective festive period, with lots of time to unpack the story.
