Listening to the 2022 expanded audiobook with context and new lessons about the Russian invasion of Ukraine, and it is pretty wild that he's speaking for 8 extra hours just off notes! This is really more like a HUGE podcast episode, and it's stacked with history and specifics about Putin's mythologizing of Russian/Ukrainian history. I realized I'm nearly halfway through and we haven't even gotten to the original essays yet! So, if you are looking to read/listen to this one, just know what you're getting into.

The plot is a little predictable, but overall, a delightful cozy lil fantasy zoo setting. Although the MC was sometimes infuriatingly/self-sabotagingly awkward, I do think that root of social anxiety was explored fairly well. As a certified anxious worrier myself, I felt deeply the constant thrums of what-if running through her mind. I also absolutely LOVE a kelpie, so that whole feature drew me in (maybe even more than the phoenixes). Beautiful depictions of friendship and community, too. A lovely read.

"Romance was awful. She couldn't even do something as simple as murdering rude people anymore" AMAZING
