An 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
Book Two:
This is a light fluffy Christmas installment of the Vampire Knitting Club cozy series. It is #4 in the series but I think it can be read alone.

Needed a cozy read so I picked this one up. This is the 4th one in the vampire knitting club series. This one is set at the holidays so they have a booth at an artisan market. They become friendly with another booth and she gets attacked. So mystery is started. Pretty good.
Read this while hiding from the news last night. Super cute, though I didn't like it as much as the first, mostly because the plot point about Garlic's hands was not explained and took me half the book to figure it out.
This incredibly detailed and researched book describes how innocent people were victims of misguided religiosity, ignorance, bigotry, and misogyny. Even in modern times, powerful people use the fear of demonization and the unknown to exploit and control people. Today‘s social and political climate continues this persecution and the term "witch hunt" has been twisted by the rich and the powerful when their own actions are called into question.
I can‘t doom scroll anymore, so I‘m finally letting myself read this. So far, Diana‘s daughter is creepy and I can‘t believe that Ysabeau de Clermont would allow her granddaughter to call her “Grammer Ysabeau”. Like, nice try, but no.
