Lady Macbeth by Ava Reid

5.0

4.5 stars rounded up! Big thanks to NetGalley and Random House Publishing for an eArc of Lady MacBeth by Ava Reid. While I have a physical copy preordered, I still applied for the eArc as soon as I saw it.

I have a soft spot for tales infused with feminine rage! There’s something soooo good about a woman taking revenge against the despicable men who’ve wronged her. And it’s a retelling of Macbeth? Sign me up! After enjoying A Study in Drowning by Ava Reid last year, I immediately preordered Lady Macbeth upon reading the synopsis and recognizing the author. It’s a darkly whimsical take on the classic tale, but focused on Lady Macbeth, and Ava’s storytelling shines through. While it’s enjoyable even if unfamiliar with Macbeth, knowing the original story enhances the experience. Absolutely loved it! Pub date is August 5th, 2024!

Also, OBSESSED with the cover!
