This book was such a fun adventure with a wicked sense of humour. It reminded me of an episode of Supernatural if there were fewer angels and demons and you know if The Winchesters were half Fae. The narrative is told in duel, alternating perspectives from the Gallows brother.

Bones and Bourbon is brimming with twisted creatures, a P.T. Barnum style Cabinet of curiosities and all the gore and violence you expect from the original fairy tales. The nods to different cultures and classic folktales are sprinkled throughout. Overall this was a really fun book and I adore that the fantastical creatures were lesser know and from a wide variety of cultures. Would be interested in seeing where the Gallows brothers end up next.
