2024 review:
Wow I remembered absolutely nothing about this story from the first time I read it! I enjoyed it so much: the atmosphere is magical, and the heroine Vasya is always true to who she is. Plus, sassy horses are always a bonus.

2018 review:
An enchanting Russian fairytale. I normally don’t like fairytales but this one held my interest. Good for a dark winter day :)
