All I can say is, "wow"! This is a great book for spooky season: familial magic passed down from one generation to the next, vengeful spirits, evil wizards, vamps, fae, a ghostly mammoth, and so much more!
I'm so glad I finally sat down and read Elatsoe. It's such a cool premise - a world in which magic and fantasy creatures are real! - and had my heart racing at times, in anticipation of what would happen next. Definitely a thrill ride.
I really, really hope there are more books about Ellie's life because I would gladly read more about her, her faithful dogs, her family, and best fae friend Jay.
