Not Good for Maidens by Tori Bovalino
5.0
The perfect spooky season read for gothic fantasy lovers - a queer retelling of the goblin market with some witchy magic thrown in.
I’ve seen some reviewers dub this scary or petrifying, I’m the kind of girl that would be put off by that so I want to start by saying I didn’t find it too frightening, just slightly gorey in sections and gothic horroresque!
I couldn’t have predicted the direction this book would take, but I wholeheartedly believe it ended in the most perfect way.
I loved every second. The atmosphere, the goblins, the main characters, the timeline switches. It was all so good, made even more enjoyable by the fact I was in York at the start of the month and so I could picture the setting from my own memory, which was fun (but also, I’m really gonna be wary of the Shambles next time in in York
