Annie C says:
A retelling of the folktale, "The Crane Wife." A moody piece of magical realism, with a dash of horror, that is best read on a dark or rainy day.
Taking care of her small Midwestern family while her mother, a talented artist, weaves beautiful tapestries, a 15-year-old girl, when her mom brings home a six-foot-tall crane, must protect them all from this invasive creature whose demands could destroy everything-- unless she changes the story.

I'm an adult services librarian who loves world-building and learning something new from the books I read. My reading list is usually full of comics, graphic novels, sci-fi, fantasy, science and historical nonfiction and any cookbook with great photos. Outside of the library, I enjoy late night baking, watching soccer and sinking hours into videogames.
