book_dragon_julia's review against another edition
DNF at 39%
I really struggled to get into this book. The main character was frankly quite annoying and I didn't believe any of the relationships. It was all very hollow and a bit 2 dimensional. It just ended up being a bit boring which I'm gutted about as I was drawn in by the cover and the book sounded good but I was just really disappointed.
I'm glad I got it out the library and didn't buy it.

Part fairy tale, part Gothic horror, part sapphic romance. This was an interesting and beautiful book.
