I was pitched this book as an adult fantasy horror. It‘s not. It‘s a young adult fantasy thriller. It took me a while to get into the author‘s writing style but when I did, I realised that I didn‘t really care about the plot. I don‘t think it‘s a bad book; I‘m just obviously not the target audience for this one.

I am posting one book per day from my extensive collection of books. No eco action why I own this book. I got into bed before snapping a pic of a physical book so I‘m using one from my Kindle. #tbrpile. Day #27

I have no idea if these books are any good or anything about the author but I'm having a serious love affair with these covers. I love the colors and the 3D visual aspect.

Gotta admit that this was mostly a cover but since its so BAMF. But I was still pleasantly surprised with the blending of myth and folklore telling in this one.

This is a dark folktale woven in with short stories from the land. It took a couple turns and came to a conclusion I didn't expect which is always a nice surprise! Immensely readable, ideally with the lights on. 8/10, recommend reading at sunset for maximum chills.

Just started this one, and am delighted to discover that between every chapter is a short folktale! What a clever addition to an already intriguing tale, this is turning into a fantastic November read.
