Another excellent dark faerie romp by Holly Black. Thoroughly enjoyed twisting tropes on their head. Came out in 2006(?) So it's funny hearing her describe the fashion's and them being popular now as well

Content Warnings

Graphic: Drug abuse

Moderate: Animal death

Minor: Sexual content and Sexual assault

Animal death comes on fast but is over quickly...but it is a surprise happens about 1/3 of the way through the book. Drug abuse is rampant throughout but crucial to the story (the drugs are fictional but the use is based on reality), sexual abuse is not violent

Spoiler

lack of consent via character being disguises as someone else.
