This was a very comforting read. I rather enjoyed how Nina LaCour spun this tale, and her writing feels cozy. I definitely want to check out her previous books. 

This book gets right into the story, and there isn't a lot of fluff here. Not much actually happens, as it has to do with how the character's work out their feelings about their pasts. I loved reading about the family that Mila was working for, and becoming a part of, though. They just seemed so sweet and supportive. It made me wish I had a family like that. Haha. 

This is quite a quick read, but it's so haunting, beautiful, and cozy that I think it's perfect for this time of year.
