The Bear and the Nightingale

What a magical, charming incredible read. Read this for the winternight read-a-long that I'm doing and I loved this book so much. Vasya is a perfect female protagonist that grew so much within this book I loved everything about her character. I loved the magic/fantasy element of it. the environments/worlds. just ugh soooo good. Can't wait to read #2 and #3 of this trilogy :) Definitely recommend for a magical fall/winter read :)
