⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
This dark fantasy retelling of The Nutcracker was the perfect read for this time of year! I thoroughly enjoyed it!
Born on Christmas morning, twin newborns Clara and Natasha catch the interest of the local sorcerer and are cursed to be complete opposites of each other, one Light, one Dark. Natasha lives in her beautiful sisters’ shadow but gets her chance at revenge and takes the spotlight, but at what cost?
A siblings behaving badly story, full of magic, unrequited love, and the sour stink of revenge. 🎄🧚♀️🍬🍭🩸
