I love pretty much everything I've read by T Kingfisher so it should come as no surprise that I thoroughly enjoyed this gritty retelling of the Snow Queen. I only have a passing familiarity with the original fairytale, so I enjoyed this mostly as a coming of age story, as Gerta goes on an adventure to save her best friend from the clutches of the Queen of Winter. I really enjoyed the plant themes in this book, especially for a story set in the arctic. The magic is simple yet compelling. Highly recommend this story for fans of unique fairytale retellings.
