True Loaf

True Loaf is a fun short story that leaves you wanting way more out of it.

It's described as a “micro-story” in its Goodreads description, which is accurate. Inspired by Balkan folklore, True Loaf includes turns of phrase, atmosphere, and that little bit of mystery that I love about fairy tales and folklore.

My only complaint is that it doesn't feel complete. I'd love to hear more little vignettes of the same characters, more in the world, or even better, a fully fleshed novel with the story as its core.

I was confused but what the audience was for the story. The cover gives off middle grade novel vibes, but it's about adults. It wasn't a major thing, but it wasn't quite what I expected based on the cover.

Audiobook Review: The narrator has a unique voice, which I wasn't sure about initially but ultimately decided it was a good fit for the story.

Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for providing this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
