A both sweetly and bitterly enchanting spin on Sleeping Beauty, this story of a gentle toad fairy and the horror she keeps locked in a tower is not one you’ve heard before! T. Kingfisher’s world-building is immersive—she’s capable of building entire castles out of just the echoes of timeworn tales. I highly recommend Thornhedge for fans of Seanan McGuire’s Wayward Children series and Alix Harrow’s Fractured Fables series!
