 The Fox and the Devil is a wonderful mix of horror, mystery, history, and romance. It was truly delightful.
Anneke Van Helsing is the infamous Abraham Van Helsing's daughter. She wants nothing more than to find the woman whom she is convinced killed her father. When an inexplicable death happens on her doorstep and then another and this mysterious murderess seems responsible she's on a mission to find and stop this “devil”.
The longing in this novel was chef's kiss. Anneke longs for her father's love even though he's dead; she longs to solve these crimes, she longs for love and acceptance of who she is and to be seen. Finally, she longs for Diavola, this woman, or is she a monster?
I really loved the letters Diavola was sending in a provocatively teasing way but with no malice from Diavola. The chase to find the killer was very well done, too. The only disappointment I had was the pacing at some parts. Some of it felt too slow and some of it felt rushed, but overall it was a great book that I would recommend to people who like their romance a little monstrous, mysterious and Sapphic.

Thank you, Del Rey and Kiersten White, and NetGalley, for providing this book for review. All opinions are my own 

This was more slasher less campy than the first Candy Cain but I still liked it. I liked that Candy Cain was an unstoppable killer and totally unhinged in such an over the top way. Of course the evil people who helped make her into this evil person were just evil religious zealots which was sort of fun. I absolutely thought the ending nailed it. loved it more because of it.

This was wonderful Christmasy goodness. Lots of found footage and murderous scenes. When Candy Cain kills she's so creative and diabolical. 
When you find out about the whole history of the legend behind Candy Cain it makes you pause and think, but not long because we have another person to murder in a wonerfully graphic yet still kind of campy way. All in all if you read this you'll be giggling ho ho oh no and enjoying the maynem like I did.

This was absolutely delicious. It was weird but I loved it. I loved Dalia and how she fit into the house of an Archaic One Anathema. Archaic Ones are beings that aren't human more like monstrous demigods. Anathema is most like a GARGANTUAN spider/human hybrid.
The way the house was and the servants and just everything was mysterious and magical. 
This story is fantasy, magical realism, horror, sapphic romance, mystery and a genre that hasn't been named. It's unique and wonderful I HIGHLY recommend it!!

My mom bought this for me after I started reading a library hold. On page 168. So far so good. I really like it.
