Malice by Heather Walter
4.0

I started this book during the end of my freshman year, so unfortunately it was not a priority. I was studying for finals, packing up, going home, and then starting work again, meaning I was too busy to really be present and engaged with Malice.

The writing and plot reads very YA which I’m not the target audience for anymore. I wish it was grittier and more complex with a focus on the character development and dynamics of our main characters. I feel like the style and choices made put me in more of a slump than I already was in.

BUT…

It has lesbianism AND it’s a fairy tale retelling about a villain. Both of those things are my favs so I had a great time regardless of the fact it took me forever to read.
