Book Review: Small Spaces by Katherine Arden

Update April 3, 2023: Had to give this one a second read through after my disappointment with book 4 and it still stands as a great book. I'll read it to my son when he's old enough. On to a re-read of book 2.

Strangely beautiful, captivating, haunting, heartbreaking and hopeful.

At one point as I was reading this book, my cats got into a fight and I was so engrossed in this story that the sound of them hissing at each other had me jumping a little. It has been a long time since that has happened to me and I am delighted to say this book creeped me out just enough to make a lasting impression. I loved this story, I loved Ollie and her friends, and I loved the reveal of this book.

Now I have no excuse. I need to go and catch up on the Winternight Trilogy immediately. Also, I am 99% certain there will be scarecrows scuttling around in my dreams tonight and I am totally okay with that, mostly, I think.
