(3) YA When Brooklyn teen Vassa heads into the endless night to buy lightbulbs, BY's (a convenience store on chicken legs) witchy owner Babs won't let her leave. With help from smart-aleck magical doll Erg, Vassa frees herself and other prisoners. Strangely lovely imagery mixes with the straight-up weird for a vivid, enjoyable urban fantasy inspired by Russian folktale "Vassilissa the Beautiful."
