Little Black Bird
by Anna Kirchner
I'm sitting here trying to write a review for this book and all I can think is wow. This book has everything you could want, magic, demons, fantastic characters. It was amazing to read a book based on slavic mythology, as there are barely any and it is so interesting! It was also set in Poland, which was a breath of fresh air since most books are set in the US (not saying that's a bad thing but variety is quite nice).
Now, about the characters. They all seem like real human beings and not some kind of perfect being that gets everything right at the first try and without even putting some effort into it, which I found great. We also get some questioning characters which was amazing to read and it was so well connected to the story!! It definitely wasn't something forced just for the sake of diversity, it made sense and I loved it.
About the set, I already said I really liked that it was set in Poland so I'll just add that the vibes of the descriptions were fantastic and it made the little town sound really magic.
All in all, the book is really good and I really recommend it to anyone that likes:
a) magic
b) demons
c) adorable and relatable characters
d) good books
