A review by spestock
Fairest Flesh by K.P. Kulski

4.0

I received this book in my Night Worms subscription box, and started reading having no knowledge other than the blurb on the back cover. Glad I went into it blind, because I wasn't expecting a lot of the twists and turns, which made them all the more effective.

One thing in particular that I found very effective: we know what Elizabeth/Erszebet Bathory did, but it still ended up a punch in the gut when I got to the part of the book where she was actually doing it.

I did feel that the ending was a little rushed; another 50 pages or so would have let that climax breathe just a bit more.
