Naomi Novik is becoming one of my favorite authors. Her stories remind me of the fantastical books I would read as a kid, just sexier and darker.

Another satisfying adult fairy tale style story from Naomi Novik, I think I liked this one better than Uprooted.
This twist on Rumplestiltskin also has a Slavic slant, accented by a narrator with a Russian-type accent. Told in several voices, this story brings three young women together in a way that allows them to each triumph over their separate trials.
