Really enjoyed this one. Darker and more psychologically honest than most fairy tale retellings, and the found family that assembles to take down the villain is genuinely great — especially Hester and Penelope. The I am not Falada moment is one of my favorite things I’ve read this year. Slight drag in the middle but worth pushing through.
