Malice by Heather Walter
3.0

I was disappointed in this novel, I wanted to love it and had heard a lot of hype surrounding it. A sapphic retelling of Sleeping Beauty with an antihero love interest sounded promising, but there was a whole lot of lead-in for not a lot of delivery. I know there's a second novel, but there's a difference between telling a story and leaving it on a cliffhanger for the second novel to pick up and just writing a mediocre story that drags on across two books.
