Erin A. Craig can do no wrong! Her writing is captivating and balanced. This story is inspired by the fairytale “Godfather Death” by the Grimm Brothers. 4.7 🌟
Read this to approve for my 11 year old. The subject (fantasy) is similar to@what I would typically enjoy, just on a more PG level. No unnecessary sex or swearing. Easy read. The characters changed a little during the last third of the book, but all in all, a good read that I will definitely let my daughter read!
‘Hazel Trepas has always known she wasn‘t like her siblings. A thirteenth child, promised to one of the gods... -Merrick, the god of death‘
This dark tale was a beautiful retelling of Godfather Death. Fantastic writing. Highly recommend.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Hazel is the thirteenth child in a family of little means. Her godfather, the Dreaded End, is a god who, after neglecting her for many years, trains her as a healer. Hazel has a rare gift as well—she can see when someone is going to die & can‘t be cured. Court intrigue, a wastrel of a prince (who maybe wants to be something more), a jealous godfather, & a mysterious disease make for an entertaining YA fairy tale retelling.
Starting next. #FairytaleReadingChallenge

This was mostly enjoyable. Loved the characters, gods, and fantasy world. But the romance was a let down. And I wanted more interaction between Hazel and her godfather, the god Merrick.
The candles glow on the BOTM edition. So cool. I'm starting this one today.
