I really didn’t expect to like the first book as much as I did so I have high hopes for this one. I hope it lives up to the first one.

Another book that has been sitting in my shelf for years. I’ve got to say. I’m pretty proud of how many books in my ro-read list I’m marking off this year. So far three of them.

I’m pretty sure when I bought this book a couple years ago at a Con, I thought it was a Russian retelling of Snow White. This is not that. Instead it’s the story of real life British children’s Arthur Ransome and his time being a reporter in Russia during the Bolshevik revolution. Very interesting but lacking in dwarfs.
