A whimsically dark poetic short that packs a punch.
I honestly quite liked this book, I just wish it wasn't as confusing as it was, but maybe that was just me, and I need to read it again.
A brilliant and intriguing cast of characters, a captivating plotline, and an inviting world full of mystery and magic.
I'd definitely recommend giving this short a go if you're a fan of Schwab and Kingfisher. You can read it within a day easily so there's not much time to lose if you don't vibe with it.
Now don't mind me as I splurge money I don't have on her other works.
