But it is the attitude of the characters while failing that makes you think that maybe they are just doing that to serve that need within the plot. I liked the premise and could not help but enjoy how the story evolved in the rural Alaskan communities. In fact, the story is almost self-referential in the sense that Mabel owns a book telling the story of the snow maiden, which her father (a literature professor) used to read to her: however, she learns as an adult that he only pretended to read, because the tale is in Russian! Castillo’s fear of pedophilia also became the foundation of a significant storyline in the book and series. Along with the stunning story, the author gives the gift of glimpsing life in Alaska, which is so unique to most Americans and even the world.

But in this beautiful, violent place things are rarely as they appear, and what they eventually learn about Faina will transform all of them. Mabel and Jack have come to settle on the Alaskan home-front in the 1920s, having left behind the busy Pennsylvania lifestyle to which they had become accustomed. Jack and Mabel are an aging couple who left their old life and moved to Alaska seemingly to start a homestead but really to escape the weight of their loss that, turns out, they were not able to leave behind with their old lives. At the end, I found myself believing Jack, Mabel, Faina and the cast of supportive neighbors--pragmatic George, boisterous Esther and their helpful wide-eyed son Garrett--really existed somewhere, somehow.Of course, among its pages we can find characters that, if you have read the previous works, will sound quite familiar to you.
