Quite simply, The Snow Child is the most gorgeous piece of fiction I've read in ages. It's everything a fairy tale should be - complete escapism into a vivid fantasy world that feels so real it's almost tangible. Very rarely does a book allow me to completely shut out the world and escape, but The Snow Child did just that.

If you're stressed and could do with some time out this is the perfect antidote. Ooh, and it could be quite an expensive read for me too as it's seriously made me want to go to Alaska.

Eowyn Ivey is definitely an author to watch and I can't wait to read her next book. Incredibly this is her début novel, what a talented lady!
