review:
'Ask Baba Yaga: Otherworldly Advice for Everyday Troubles' by Taisia Kitaiskaia is a quirky advice book, but I found it's oddness quite charming.

Taking something present in her life as a young girl, the author kind of channels Baba Yaga to give advice to wayward folks. Questions are about love, jobs and family. Answers are typed oddly and seem really askew. That is until you think about them. One writer asks about staying with a kind, but boring boyfriend, and Baba Yaga speaks of stumps filled with goodness that are yet stumps.

I really liked this volume of strange advice that seems to give the reader pause. I found myself laughing quite a bit, and I loved the odd typography in Baba Yaga's answers, as if the author were typing not of her own volition.

I received a review copy of this ebook from Andrews McMeel Publishing and NetGalley in exchange for an honest review. Thank you for allowing me to review this ebook.
