This was a book that I read. Although not particularly fantastical, it is heavily inspired by a variety of folktales and reads very much like one. It is pretty slow-paced and I wasn’t particularly invested in any of the characters. If you like well-written prose with gothic vibes, you might enjoy this, but it wasn’t really for me.
Moderate: Death and Toxic friendship
Minor: Terminal illness and Death of parent
