Kind of a fantasy horror retelling of Snow White tale in T. Kingfisher's way.
I love this author, especially her horror stories and I was happy to see a mix of horror and fantasy based, loosely, on Snow White Tale with dark humor, and as usual a witty female character developed with talent.
That's something I love with Kingfisher's work, the character development and this one was awesome. It's probably the character I can relate with the most in all her work. A badass plus size woman, who's not taking bulshit and stereotypical lifestyle and a tad neurospicy in my opinion. I love her.
The romance is on the light side and without graphic intercourse, much appreciated as writers nowadays seem to add that everywhere to sell wick world building and character development, and badly written stories.
It's fun to read, a cozy fantasy on a darker side. The writing is excellent as usual with this writer. More a grey kind of villain and not stereotypically over bad in her development.
The female lead is incontestable as usual.
I also like how botanic and wisdom in general are studied beforehand and properly introduced in the story we without the scholar boring side and more educative and fun.
It's a solid dark fantasy tale and as usual a pleasure to read T. Kingfisher's stories.
