A very fun read! Are this story‘s fanfiction roots obvious? Definitely, but that doesn‘t stop it from being a great story. Rippling with narrative tension, fast-paced, and engagingly written, I really enjoyed this dark fantasy. And it is dark, particularly for women, so you know, don‘t go in if you‘re sensitive. Briony is a good storyteller, although I‘m not sure how reliable a narrator, and the book ends on a very satisfying reveal. Excellent!
