The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey

3.0

I enjoyed this book. I love how the story is based on a fairy tale about how an old man and woman make a daughter from snow. In this book a married couple also make a snow girl, and later they spot a little girl. I loved the parts when the girl visited and they tried to earn her trust. This book is no fairy tale, and soon reality hits. The story is set in the middle of nowhere in Alaska and life is hard. The book is melancholic and slow-paced, which is why I don't give it 4 stars.
