A good story that combines the Hansel and Gretel fairytale with Snow White. Trigger warning: there is animal cruelty in the latter end of the book.
Overall I did enjoy the story. However, I could not imagine Greta as a 22-year-old woman - she struck me more as a teenager. Hansel was also an interesting character, although he was underdeveloped (understandably though, since it is not his story but Greta’s).
