This intriguing novel weaves together the stories of three seemingly disparate characters to create a rich tapestry of mystery, myth and adventure.Extremely unusual and beautifully written, this is a compelling and moving read. We have to warn you that, as with many other books, The Snow Girl is also going to be adapted to a real image. Specifically, it has been Netflix who has been interested to get the rights and record a series. Meanwhile, the detectives on the case,Belén Millán, and her partner Chaparro, question one of the neighbors, a woman who claims to have seen something the night of the parade. Since the disappearance, the cops have found Amaya’s discarded yellow raincoat.

The Snow Girl | BookTrust
But, each year in winter, on the first day of the New Year, Father Frost and the Snow Maiden return to Russia in their troika (sleigh). And they continue to work their magic, as they did long ago for the woodcutter and his wife, for those who are good and kind, particularly the children, bringing them small gifts and helping to make their dreams come true.As the harsh weather conditions worsen, Grandpa falls gravely ill, but the doctor cannot reach him through the snow. Tasha knows that she must ask Alyana to bring winter to an end, but will this mean she will lose her only friend forever? I don't know how old Eowyn Ivey was when she started this debut novel, The Snow Child, but I'm going to guess she was relatively young. It's filled with many rookie mistakes I made in my own first novel: a strong primary protagonist surrounded by several lesser formed characters, the action of the story reduced to one primary setting, and a few loose plot points that require suspension of disbelief from the reader. When Mabel remembers the Russian folktale her father used to read them about a childless old couple who made a snow child that came to life, she writes to her sister to ask for the old book. It shows Kiera, alive and well, playing in a bedroom. Several more videos arrive, always showing Kiera in that same room. Until a final video arrives. It’s the same bedroom – but Kiera is gone. Miren is determined not to let Kiera disappear again. But someone doesn’t want Kiera to be found – and will do whatever it takes to stop Miren in her pursuit.”

I could chat about this book now for hours...but I'll stop-- YOU GUYS HAVE READ THIS BOOK ALREADY... ( you need my thoughts like a hole in the head)... A beautiful, magic-tinged tale of an aging couple, the bleak Alaskan wilderness and a child who appears one day in the wood.But what of the snow maiden? Well, it is said that, as she melted away, her spirit was caught by Father Frost who retreated to far lands with the advance of Mother Spring. He took the spirit of his daughter across the stars to the frozen lands of the north, where she again took the form of a beautiful young woman. Here she plays all through the summer - on the frozen seas. The looming tale of the Russian fairytale is beautifully woven in along the story and sometimes makes you question yourself. The way the story progresses is brilliant and everything happening in the story is engrossing. i suppose i can give you some brief descriptions, for those of you who strangely don't see the cover and instantly think "must. read." I am sorry to say no matter which version, the story ends badly. The little snow girl comes and goes with winter, but in the end she always melts." pg 96, ebook. until one night, when an unexpected levity descends upon them, and they build a snow child together, dressing her in a hat and mittens that they have, and carving the face of a beautiful girl upon her.
