The descriptions and reviews of this book sum it up pretty well --
Gretchen and Ansel have a sister who disappears (Gretchen's twin) in the forest when they are quite young and chasing the witch who lives in the woods (as children do).
Just about the second Gretchen hits the magical grown up age of 18 she and Ansel are out on their own, determined to make new lives for themselves. Instead they find themselves wrapped up in the dramas of a small town convinced their only friend is some kind of witch or maybe just some of apocalyptic sign of some sort. So they've got to work their way through the towns secrets. The secrets of woods. Their own secrets. Well you get the picture, they have a lot of big messed to sort out and not much time what with the Chocolate festival coming up…
I will say this - if you have not read the author's other book: Sister's Red and think you might want to? Skip the "Exclusive Character Q&A" at the end of the book. It's more of a chat between this book's heroine and someone from that book and while not real spoilers, I suppose some things that character says in that extra could, by some, be considered spoilers. If you stumbled on this book first - they're not REALLY connected. It's not a series. Read them in any order. They're similar styles - classic fairy tales totally redone, more like a nod to them with only minor hints of the original stories left behind. But yeah, that Q&A, not for those who haven't read Sister's Red first.
Ready for more books like this by this author!
