Vassa in the Night
of Sarah Porter (Goodreads Author)
Description
In the enchanted kingdom of Brooklyn, the fashionable people put on cute shoes, go to parties in warehouses, drink on rooftops at sunset, and tell themselves theyâve arrived. A whole lot of Brooklyn is like that nowâbut not Vassaâs working-class neighborhood.In Vassaâs neighborhood, where she lives with her stepmother and bickering stepsisters, one might stumble onto magic, but stumbling away again could become an issue. Babs Yagg, the owner of the local convenience store, has a policy of beheading shopliftersâand sometimes innocent shoppers as well. So when Vassaâs stepsister sends her out for light bulbs in the middle of night, she knows it could easily become a suicide mission.But Vassa has a bit of luck hidden in her pocket, a gift from her dead mother. Erg is a tough-talking wooden doll with sticky fingers, a bottomless stomach, and a ferocious cunning. With Ergâs help, Vassa just might be able to break the witchâs curse and free her Brooklyn neighborhood. But Babs wonât be playing fairâŠ
