It is clear that a great deal of care and craft was poured into this VN; it was such a delight to read! I loved Lac-Pochette, that utter character of an unplaceable zone that made such a bewildering environment for the cast to go about their very human pursuits. Plus I just thought this was a super neat conceit for a story.
I particularly enjoyed watching how Susanna and Lucy's chemistry developed. They continued to surprise me right up to the very end. But I also really enjoyed the stories they told when playing; Marcel and Ephraim especially were such fun characters to hear. And I'm going to be thinking about Goody Bourdon a long, long time.
