Would like more background on Anna & Dunya. I feel like there is more to those characters than what is on the page. Would’ve also liked more background on Vasya’s real mother too because I feel like her powers come from her mom, but why don’t the other siblings have it either.

I am devouring this and am really anticipating to see how the story would all come together, especially with the introduction of the mysterious “stranger” and father Konstantin.

I also love the siblings’ relationship - particularly that of the MC and her older brother.

Anna is definitely the “evil stepmother” here.
