Half Sick of Shadows by Laura Sebastian

4.0

I'm a sucker for Arthurian stories, and this book is no exception. The author does such a good job of filling you with fear about the future, that you don't realize how integral the present and the past have been for these characters!

The story of Arthur will always be tragic, but in this retelling, Morgana, Gwen, and Elaine of Shalott take the story into their own hands, refusing to be the evil, treacherous, and passive versions they have been; even if that choice breaks their hearts.
