I liked how the book worked as a set of interconnected short stories that came together to form a novel. And it struck the right balance of real-world and supernatural horror without either one feeling forced or out of place.

I liked this story, but it wasn't what I was expecting. I wanted a cute Christmas tale, and got a darker, more reflective Christmas Carol.

In general, I liked this. However, the cast of characters was too large and the characters went by too many different names and were so similar that they blended together and it was really difficult to keep the cast straight. I spent so much energy trying to understand who was who that I wasn't invested in the stakes of the plot.

This was adorable and one I can't wait to share with the kids in my life. Accessible poetry that builds up a narrative about a small otter trying to understand who she is and how she fits in the world.

A strong story about complicated families with a dash of murder. Adult sibling relationships can be deeply complex and that really shines here.
