I absolutely ate this story! This was so great! The retelling of the nutcracker is just so great. How interesting and in-depth the author goes into the feeling and emotions of the main characters is impressive. I cannot believe all the different turns this dark retelling takes. And then once you think the story is coming to an end the last twist is unleashed. So good. Will 100% recommend people to read this book! Just so good!!!
