Charming

This is a charming, nice and kind of cosy book. Some may find the faux 19th century academic style in which it is written pretentious but I felt it added to the ambiance. And I really liked the novel approach of telling the story this way, as an academic's journal. There are also some serious elements, twists and turns and a lot of faerie folklore and stories. A few of the story beats are perhaps a bit too convenient. But overall, I really enjoyed. Fits well with a winter mood.
