This has to be one of my favorite retellings of The Legend of Sleepy Hollow. 
At the start I was worried especially when we're getting the story from an original character instead of a character from the original text, but I should know to trust Christina. Because I just loved our main character, Ben. I really loved that this character was queer on page and I personally saw him being ace too, but that's me. I also found the ending so much more satisfying than what I thought was going to happen. 

Anway, I love the way Christina Henry takes on these stories and does something truly original and unique with them.
