The Steep and Thorny Way by Cat Winters
5.0
How Cat Winters isn’t the biggest name in YA fiction I will never understand. As with every one of her books I’ve read thus far, The Steep & Thorny Way is an absolute stunner of a book.
A retelling of Hamlet, if Hamlet were a biracial girl in the Pacific Northwest in the 20s and the real villain were bigotry all along, this book will grab you by the heart and refuse to let go. I devoured the entire book in a single sitting, in a way I haven’t since I was in middle school.
I could write more, but I honestly do not want anyone to spend any more time reading this review when that time would be better spent reading this book (and then the rest of Cat Winters’ oeuvre). Go. Now.
