Januaries is a collection of new and iconic short stories and novellas from New York Times bestselling author Olivie Blake. Once upon a time in a land far, far away, the tutelary spirit to a magical bridge rapidly approaches burnout. Meanwhile, congress enacts a complex auditing system designed to un-waste your youth, a banished fairy answers a Craigslist ad, a Victorian orphan gains literacy for her occult situationship, and a multiverse assassin contemplates the one who got away. Escape the slow trudge of mortality with these magical ruminations on life, death, and the love (or revenge) that outlasts both, featuring modified fairytales, contemporary heists, absurdist poetry, and at least one set of actual wedding vows.

This was such a beautiful story about the guardian of a wish bridge and a boy that keeps finding her and eventually makes his own wishes...
The copy that I have is one of the prettiest books I own. It's hardback with sprayed edges and the illustrations are goregous. I'm intrigued to read this one, I also think the titles sound like Taylor Swift songs.
