With this book, Henry cleverly weaves in the story of Sleepy Hollow and the Headless Horseman, while giving the tale her own spin that makes for a very satisfying end in my opinion.

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.
