Phenomenal folktale/fairytale retelling! I went into this semi-blind and it was the most rewarding story. I loved the beautiful prose and often found myself reading passages out loud to my husband. There are 3 main character POVs and each have a different voice that is so distinct. The characters feel so real and the fantasy world is similar to our own, but magical and easy to follow. I highly recommend this to everyone. But do check the triggers!! I definitely wish I had to get a heads-up. But still, very worth a read!
