This is hands down one of the best folklore books I've ever read. Its diverse characters, plotwists and connections to the Shadow and Bone world was simply fantastical. These tales are a perfect mix of a disturbing, mysterious and fascinating plotline and endearing (or terrifying!) characters that are difficult to forget.
Definetely a must-read if you're a fan of the Grishaverse series! 
Do beware of triggers and very disturbing themes, though.
