A low pick; not as good as I expect from Kingfisher. The narrative style is a bit twee and though certainly spooky, nothing that happens makes much sense. But the strong character of Rhea made me enjoy the book more as it went on, especially when she's faced with a “test“ that she fails with flying colors.

pickI lovely , dark fairytale story without the romance. Quite the opposite actually, where a young girl is told she is to marry the local lord. When she visits his house, things are much darker than she feared. Not my favorite T. Kingfisher book, but a solid read. 4⭐️

pick1843 is “the last year of the world” — according to Elias Fitcher, a charismatic preacher in upstate NY. Determined to spend Eternity as a married man, he sets his eye on the three young daughters of one of his devout followers.
This reimagining of the Bluebeard tale was so good. It‘s a very dark story that I would highly recommend to dark fantasy lovers.
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

pickThis #FairytaleRetelling of #Bluebeard makes for a fun and fast listen! I really love Kingfisher‘s books and this YA story shares some of the dark imagery of her books for adults— as well as some of the humor. Rhea, a miller‘s daughter, finds herself in the impossible position of being forced to marry a mysterious nobleman. When she travels to his home, with the unexpected aid of a hedgehog, she soon discovers that there are darker secrets afoot!
