Xan is a character from The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill.
Xan is a witch who has been living in the forests for 5000 years. Xan saves the abandoned babies that the townsfolk abandon, sometimes willingly, sometimes not. When Xan meets Luna, she knows that she can’t give her away, so she feeds her the moon, instead of stars. Xan does her best to help Luna, and though she makes some mistakes, is a kind and loving “grandmother”. I love how she helps Luna and how kind she is. Xan is such a great character!

I am not familiar with this one. Thank you for giving me something to look up! 😊
I love letter X posts! Always such variety.
It’s hard to believe the alphabet part of the blogging challenge is over for 2021. Down to the after survey, reflections, and the “road trip” sign-up.
Plus, I’m taking part in the Bout of Books read-a-thon in May. So much excitement!
