Isn't this a retelling? Like a Hansel and Gretel retold with some twists?

Wow that was a great short story. I loved the main girl, and I love the ending of the book. :)

This was a “delicious” tale to read. Folklore and Folktales have always fascinated me and this one isn’t any different.

This was so incredibly creepy and cinematic, I couldn't tear my focus away. One of the best folk tales I've read in a long time; the mood and tone are so well presented. Leigh Bardugo is a genius.
