Book Review: A Thousand Steps Into Night by Traci Chee

Published on December 12, 2022December 10, 2022 by Celeste3 Comments

Today’s review is about A THOUSAND STEPS INTO NIGHT by Traci Chee, a Japanese mythology-inspired tale. Some of the characters reminded me of Studio Ghibili creations. And I loved Miuko’s wry humor coupled with her ability to never lose sight of her goal.
