Thanks, Natalya, for your link and your wonderful review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

A short and adorable story about a girl who got a demon pet for her birthday. Yes, in the author’s world, demons of all varieties are sold as pets – in specialty demon stores. They actually make good pets.
Simultaneously funny and sad, sweet and quirky, it was a miniature story about real people and big problems. It made me smile. It almost made me cry. Its opening line is one of the best I’ve ever read:

Mathilde didn’t want a demon. She wanted a pony.

The cover art is unbelievably cute too.
Recommended.
