The book that I recently read left me in awe. I was completely blown away by the first story and wondered if the following ones would be able to top it, but to my amazement, every single short story was a gem in its own right. It's a rare occurrence to come across a collection of stories that are all equally captivating.
The author has an exceptional talent for drawing the reader into the story. After reading this book, I have no doubt that we will be seeing great things from her in the future.
The stories are a brilliant mix of tenderness, sadness, emotion, eeriness, and a dark fairytale atmosphere. It's an experience that leaves a lasting impression on the reader. The book was so engrossing that I felt a sense of sadness when I reached the end.
Thank you to the Author, publishers and Netgalley for the ARC of this book. This review is honest and my own.
