Happy Baba Yaga season, dear Littens!
I've baked rye bread, and there are gallons of tea: in other words, business as usual.

I‘ve never really been one to reread books. I‘m always anxious to get started on a new book and find a new fav. But I have been thinking a lot about some of my fav books and decided to give this one a reread since I originally listened to it on audio. So far, it lives up to how I remember it. Bizarre, dark, gruesome, and magical ✨🦢
Maybe I need to reread books more! How often do you reread favs? How do you balance new reads and rereads?
pick4.2⭐️ I love the story. It was a beautiful story of redemption and forgiveness incorporating Polish folklore. I am new to most of these legends, but I have heard of Baba Yaga, who was a prominent part of the story. This was the May Fable fantasy read, and I do plan to read book 2.
so-soWhew, I finally finished this one while waiting on my son at state testing today. I of course needed to snap of picture of my girl & I twinning with our star themed kindle cases. She was reading “Bad Guys”. This was probably my least favorite V. Roth book I‘ve read - which is sad because I usually fan girl over her books. 3 ⭐️
Tor Books and Veronica Roth just announced this follow-up to one of my favorite books from 2024 (tagged)! While the first book was a complete and satisfying story, I am excited to return to such a rich, unique world.

pickAn adorable reimagining of Baba Yaga as a witch from Santa Fe. I loved all of the nods to the inspiration, like the roadrunner legs and the prickly pear fence. I'm not sure why the girl looks like she stepped out of Tim Burton's imagination in most scenes. #Retelling #BabaYaga #Witch #PictureBook
