O que esperar
Lyrical, whimsical, and mildly suspenseful with a cozy yet bittersweet tone. The pacing is steady and reflective, driven more by character relationships and atmosphere than high-stakes action. Reading difficulty is accessible and easy to follow. Content notes: touches on grief, domestic abuse by a partner, death, and dark supernatural elements.
