A Fae Tale by Genevieve McCluer

4.0

Thank you to NetGalley for providing me with a copy of this book!

Take Pan's Labyrinth, make it Secret Garden, then add lesbians, and you get The Fae Tale. Childhood friends to lovers, international setting, interspecies relationship... pretty much everything one could possibly want from a story like this.

The relationships between each of the characters were nuanced and varied. I enjoyed the alternating perspectives and the look into Vana and Roze's lives - especially with their specific situation. This book occupied every thought I had between reading. My only complaint was the pacing felt a little weird at times, which could absolutely be chocked up to personal preference. Overall, absolutely would suggest this book to a friend.
