I really enjoyed this book. It’s really a 4.5 out of 5. I’ve only ever read Ashley Poston’s Once Upon a Con series, so it was interesting seeing how she write a fantasy.
I loved Cerys and Fox. They’re relationship was so cute. As soon as I really sat down to read this book I flew through it. I know it’s supposed to be a stand-alone, but I wouldn’t be opposed to more story in this universe.

I loved this!!! Definitely read like a fairytale. Kept me engrossed the whole time. I loved the characters!
I received an eARC from Edelweiss and HarperCollins - Balzer + Bray in exchange for a fair and honest review, and I’d like to thank them for the advanced copy.
An enchanting story about a gardener’s daughter, a fox, and a cursed crown, Among the Beasts & Briars follows Cerys and Fox as they journey to uncover the secrets, lies, and history of the magical world they live in.
Without giving too much away, I loved the main character, Cerys (Daisy). She was strong, fearless, compassionate, and caring. I also loved Fox. He was tenacious even when he was scared and I loved his character development. I also loved the diversity and the setting of the entire novel. The sass and playful jabs between the characters (Cerys and Fox, Fox and Vala) were adorably enjoyable. The subtle nod to Beauty and the Beast was a great touch.
I would have finished this book a lot faster, but I forced myself to put it down to be able to enjoy it longer. When I wasn’t reading it, I was thinking about it. It was truly a great read and exactly the fairytale I needed right now.
If you’re an Ashley Poston fan, then you will adore this book. If you’re new to her novels, you will become a fan very quickly while reading Among the Beasts & Briars! I can’t wait until the release date so I can re-read a physical copy.
