I’ve always loved retellings of fairy tales because it’s absolutely the best feeling in the world to be able to revisit stories from your childhood. Even though The Goose Girl was never really a favourite, I knew I wanted to read Thorn as soon as I read the blurb. It has everything I love about the genre, but what makes this book exceptional is how well it deals with abuse; it portrays the trauma of a survivor sensitively and much more realistically than other books in SFF usually do. And while Grimdark is great, it’s just so refreshing to read about such a thoughtful and kind protagonist.
