The Sisters of the Winter Wood by Rena Rossner
4.0
A gripping and brilliant story of two very different sisters who discover a passed on family secret as they live in the woods of their village, The Sisters Of Winter Wood, is a story that just slowly enchants you.
A story that begins slowly and then just speeds up, The Sisters Of Winter Wood, is a delicious weave of fairy tales and books such as The Song Of Achilles that just makes so difficult to put it down - I have been awake at very early hours of the morning trapped in this book, it should come with a warning!
Liba and Laya are wonderfully constructed characters that are the opposites of one another but really are connected throughout this book - they remind me of me and my own sister and I think that genuineness drags you in to this book (my sister is very much the swan!). This book delivers in every moment when it comes to the people Rossner creates and I loved this book for it.
A gorgeous read throughout, if you love fairy tales and maybe to an extent, fables, you are going to love this book.
