Embers: Beastly Curses | Sky Sommers
1 post | 1 read
A wolf cursed to be a horrible warning. A huntsman who hates to kill. His son loves red T-shirts and to roam the woods alone. For failing to uphold her end of the bargain Ella's "wicked" stepmother Grace now walks the world on four paws. Her husband Peter has become the village huntsman to save his wife from the villagers. And his son from his wife. Will Grace remember who she is as she is drawn to the boy? Will she find her way back to Peter? And how exactly do you lift a Fairy Queen's curse? This retelling of Red Riding Hood weaves several classic fairytales together with a splash of darkness, can be read as a standalone novel and is aimed at a mixed (YA/NA) audience. For those who wanted to know how Prince Charming's parents got together, keep an eye out for a nested story of Belle and Beast.

Mehso-so

While I didn't enjoy this book quite as much as the first in the series, it was fun to read about the different fairy tales. Grizelda was definitely my favorite character, and I would be interested in reading more of her backstory. It was also nice to see how Ella matured since the events of the previous book. That being said, the different POVs didn't work for me with this book. Overall though, a quick and lighthearted read!
